heres how i did a few of mine. i got a bunch of 2-300 year old barn flooring from a friend, and it looks pretty "rustic". i coulod refine the assembly a but, but it looks good n rough, and compliments the display, i think... whats your opinion? my largest bird is on here, 1-1/4 spurs and 11-1/4 beard. he wieghed 23lbs dressed.
ps--the feathers are from the "ones that got away" and man, you shoulda seen the size of them bad boys!
