    Got Wood......?

    hi guys, wasnt sure where to put this post.....does anybody out there have a 'nice' piece of wood they would like to donate to my first 'mount'

    I want to euro-mount my underwhelming 8-pointer in my avatar, its the only timber i have as im not a trophy hunter....

    so i will pay postage if anyone has a 'nice' piece of Rimu, Totara, swamp Kauri (cheeky bastard!) lying around doing nothing!!!!

    dont want a traditional shield shape......thanks in advance!!!!! (cheeky bastard X 2)
    While I might not be as good as I once was, Im as good once as I ever was!

    Oh yeah VC, that sounds spot on, as i really want an indigenous material, not foreign.....i will cut it into an irregular 'shape', polish it up and place the skull on it....

    only need about (this is approximate) 30cm x 500cm x 1.5/2cm thick piece....do you have anything like that?....want it to look 'rustic' mate

    mate dropped off two slabs/planks of oak today. approx. 1200mm long by 300mm wide the thicker of the two approx. 40mm thick has been carefully cut into 3 cutting boards and the thinner 20mm piece is looking at me as if to say "well what are you going do do with me??" your post has given me boost to thought of shields for un mounted antlers defleshing in garden.
    mates with portable saw mills are great LMAO.
