Default RE: Need help on glue

Be careful if you glue the pieces together before whitening. The harsh chemicals may degrade the glue.

You might be better off to bleach the skull and the pieces, then glue. Just a thought.

I made a really nice euromount with this years' buck. Taxidermy is expensive. It's a really good idea for those deer that are nice enough to show off, but are just too small to warrant a full shoulder mount.

Let me know what bleaching method you used. I just wrapped in cheesecloth and soaked it in a pan of bleach. I was careful to the bleach off the antlers and keep the cheesecloth soaked, and all turned out well.

I boiled the skull in mom's turkey roaster. If she only knew, she'd kill me. : )
