Title: a few from last week
Post by: John_NY on January 18, 2009, 02:32:31 PM
I thought I'd post a few pictures of what I have been doing in the last week. It has not been alot fun this week with it being below zero most of the time. My shop gets pretty cold out there. They are all distress except the 2 Osage calls that are howlers.

I can understand the low temps.  My shop is in my basement and even with a heater in there (I was cleaning, not turning) I could only get it up to about 55.  Not fun.

I think skulls are going to be my new hobby collecting them. I just got the one in the picture "coyote" and I got a red fox, bobcat and have a raccoon skull coming. No I gotta find a skunk skull.

Would you like me to mail you a few John?  I could always send them with a scarlet return address.

I really like how you combined the antler with the calls, they turn out very nice.
