    How to cut a skull properly

    Can anyone chuck up some pics of a skull cut correctly?

    Im looking at chucking a head i have on the wall but just worried about the angle i cut the skull.

    If i put it on a block of wood with the full skull intact the antlers stick a hell of a long way out from the wall, would prefer they go up parallel to wall or thereabouts... Otherwise no chance this is fitting in the house.

    Cheers

    put it on a flat surface and block it up to the angle you want the antlers to sit, then get a block of wood or a book or something the right thickness of where you want to cut the skull,rest your pencil on the block and slide the block around the skull, drawing a line parallel off the block where you want to cut it. hope that helps.
