Where to buy mount/sheild

[stig]

So you may have guessed by the title, I don't even know what it is correctly called/to search for on Google.

Can anyone recommend where to buy a wooden mount and what size, style, wood, colour etc. would best suit a muntjac skull with antlers.

Thanks,

Stig

Beig a complete novice I don't want to spend £££ buying cheap shite off eBay that looks crap hence my request for advice, if you have a link to a specific eBay item then that indeed would be useful.

Has anyone used these: Skull Hooker - European Mounting System - Get Your Head On Right!(TM)

Would this be to big for a munty?

Some of the other suppliers around - many advertise on this forum in the banners.

BTW: The 'Skull Hooker' looks okay if you have a flatscreen plasma/LCD trophy!

Stig,

Buy all my shields from Snowdonia Taxidermy Supplies. They do a fantastic mail order service and are very helpful. I get the unfinished solid oak shields and then stain and wax them myself. Also, I buy their liquid skeletal bleach to do my skulls with, brings them up whiter than white!

Quite a few places sell them, as you see by the links you have from other posters, if you have a chain saw or know someone with one, different but very acceptable shields can be made from a hard wood rounds of the appropriate size, a bit of work sanding and varnishing but look really good.
