I don't believe these were the biggest elk sheds my son found last year, but I think they may be the prettiest. He also found another much smaller set last year that looked so much like these that we think in my have been this guy's son.
Yeah, the contraption is actually three contraptions in one. We had to come up with something when the Gallery asked us to bring a work over. The upper portion is a wall mount that my son asked me to make with swinging neck and simulated vertebra.
It's tied by the L-shaped bracket to the base that was made for 'Lucifer'.
Finding a stud behind the old gallery walls isn't easy and the wall mount is pretty heavy so we went with the 'contraption'.
