How to do a European Skull Mount (DIY)

[@joshlego4775]

Omg the rubberband trick. I was so cautious to do it because I was afraid it was going to force cracks!! Thank you so much!!

[@CNCoutdoors]

@@joshlego4775 it works great to keep everything tight during the drying process, You’re welcome👍🏻

Good work. I've been doing them for a couple years now.

[@CNCoutdoors]

Thanks, definitely a money saver to do it yourself

[@russelljones3171]

Great job!!!!

[@jeremyscott5118]

So I shot one last night and I am super excited to try this myself. My son was with me so he wants it for his room lol. I am thankful that your video was step by step as this will definitely help me to reference back to.

@@jeremyscott5118 congratulations! Hope this video helps you out, once you do a couple it’s pretty easy to get the hang of. 🦌

[@richgoyke9335]

Very nicely done!

[@CNCoutdoors]

Thanks!

Nice job, I’m doing exactly how you explained it. I will let you know the results. But quick question for you, did you use the clear coat on the horns ?

[@CNCoutdoors]

@@jesusp1604 thanks! I didn’t use the clear coat on the antlers but you definitely could, i guess that’s just personal preference if you want it shiny or not. Hope it turns out good!!

Hello [ revette's Wildlife Skullworks ] I use mop & gol for a protective coat brush it on look great

[@CNCoutdoors]

@@shanerevette3008 I’ll check that out, thanks!

[@thefishngod8194]

Great instructional video. Just curious if youve tried just using white spray paint. Seems like the results would be similar and a lot easier. Does that whitening product do something that the paint wouldn't do?

[@CNCoutdoors]

Thanks! I haven’t tried using white spray paint, i think it would work but you’d have to wrap the antlers up so they don’t get painted. Might be easier to just paint it white with a brush. I think the big reason a lot of people do the method i did is because it helps sanitize the skull as well with the bleach.

[@rosebenson6166]

Do you know if the salon cream would work well on its own?

[@CNCoutdoors]

I think it would but i haven’t tried it just by itself. Might take a couple extra applications possibly

[@davecoolbaugh6425]

Do you have links to the bleach product that you used?

Good Job!

[@tessgrutter9893]

I have a dead head with meat off but still has some cartilage but everything’s off otherwise, has green on it, is there any tips on no boiling methods?

[@CNCoutdoors]

@@tessgrutter9893 you can either burry the skull in the dirt or purchase some Beatles. Make sure to cover the antlers with a bag or something if you burry the skull. So the critters don’t chew on them

[@thomasburke917]

Give it a peroxide bath before you paint

[@jkoco199]

Great video!!

[@CNCoutdoors]

@@jkoco199 thanks!

[@thomasburke917]

I did come out f****** pretty good bro

[@CNCoutdoors]

@@thomasburke917 thanks!

[@thomasburke917]

For those of us who don't live in a beauty salon or have a bunch of money peroxide is your best option for the bleach

[@CNCoutdoors]

@@thomasburke917 yup that’s another good method 👍🏻
