Antler Epoxy
I broke my caribou European mount so I bought a replica skull from McKenzie Taxidermy Supplies out of the states. I need an Epoxy to attach the antlers to the skull. It comes with square aluminum pegs that fit in the skull pedicals and go into the antler. I have tried J B Weld 1 minutes fast cure but did not have any luck. Any info on a good strong epoxy would be greatly appreciated.
This is an elk skull but just to show what I'm dealing with http://www.mckenziesp.com/EM7-P12593C5947.aspx |

Le Page makes small tubes of epoxy that you squeeze out with a plunger and mix the 2 components together. Quick, clean and easy, and very strong and adhesive.
I have been very impressed with the Gorrila Glue brand glue. Just be carefull as it expands a bit. Both of the above available at Home depot. |
I have seen some guys use Autobody Bondo , then you can shape it after if you have to.

I would use bondo mix it up pour it in the holes then let it harden up untill it feels like rubber then trim the stuff that comes out of the holes. Then let it completely harden up then light sand

Thanks

Thanks for the advice, but I went with the Lepage 5 Minute Epoxy because I only had one day to complete it.
Turned out really good and is on the wall now. |
