- When this buck was ready to crash, he jumped backwards and landed on his rack shattering on side of his main beam. The hunter could not find all of the pieces, so in this video we will rebuild what is missing.

Great antler repair work. I just started fleshing my first deer today. Following your videos. I highly,highly and did I say highly commend you for your ability to flesh so many deer with a scalpel blade. I’m kinda struggling around the nose and eyes, but I’ll keep rewinding the videos. Great job.
It's one of those things that definitely takes time to get used to lol
Nice
My son bagged an 8 almost identical to your Brother's. He is on happy 16 year old. We are 40 miles east of Dothan. Already got him mounted up and drying. Gonna look awesome. Thanks fir the vids.
That's cool!
My one gripe about youtube is you can't comment with pics like facebook
Enjoyed watching the repair. Have always wondered how antlers could be repaired. Appreciate you taking the time to show this.
Thank you!
As always a great video! Thanks for sharing these tips! Keep ‘em coming!
Thanks brother!
Hey another question, if you don't mind could you do a list of the order you do things in, like when you first get the deer to tanning it to mounting
Try some of our jim allred taxidermy supplied here in nc
Very helpful . Thanks for answering my split ear question .
Make him a lil wider for me 😅lol great work man art is art
I really enjoy your videos. Could you do a video on how to do a change out head on a form? Can’t find a video on UA-cam and think it would interesting.
It came out looking good good job on the antlers
Thank you!
Good job buddy!! Have set of antlers I’m gonna try and repair myself. Was curious on the process.
Good luck!
Really enjoying your videos and the way you walk through everything in such a detailed but easy to understand way. I was wondering do you have any experience with the whitetail kits from McKenzie or Van Dyke? Are the mannequins that come with these kits decent quality or not really the best? Do they really have everything that I would need/want to mount a deer or is there more that I would ideally purchase aside from what's included?
I have never used a kit before aside from the tanning kit that does 2 capes
What is the best way to clean a shoulder mounted whitetail. I am learning taxidermy. I went to a taxidermy class in Georgia. What is the best way to clean it. The cape is real dusty. Any help be greatly appreciated. Thanks
I like to use no rinse dog shampoo. It smells good cleans good and makes the hair shine.
Love all of your videos thanks for posting can you give video of the supplies you use of done deer with the preservative way but want to get into tanning they look so much better thanks again go sharing

I have a question for you about the mounted deer heads, my favorite uncle died in the woods hunting and he had his biggest buck mounted in the late 1960's and his mount was passed around after his wife died, and I have the mounted head, and the ears are split and loose and distorted some, is there a way to get the ears look good again and would you please tell me how to do this work for the respect I have for my uncle
You can get a cape and have him remounted at any time, but if you just want to fix the ears, you might can use Bondo, gorilla glue gel, or a 2 part epoxy to fix the splitting. If they are broken away from the head at the butts, you can get a couple of long screws and run them through the inner ear and into the mannequin to help hold them back in place.
@@thecedarridgechronicles they are just split at the top of the ears and the rest of the mount is in good condition and it is very sentimental to me because my uncle and his wife pretty much raised me until my parents moved to Maine for the next 8 years and by then he was already buried and the family pretty much took everything he had and only after my aunt died that I was able to get most of it back but the mount seen some hard times and got stored in a garage for years and that's how they split and thank you for the information you gave me
Just found your page and subscribed right then I love taxidermy I can't do it but anything about the outdoors is great I enjoy your content already can't wait to see more
Awesome! Thanks!
Do taxidermists check for cwd or no, didn't know how that worked or if it affected if a deer could be mounted or not
Not in Alabama. We have one small cwd zone in the far NW corner of the state, and I believe the deer killed there are checked when harvested.

Awesome job
Love your channel and your work keep it up.can you help me find someone to do a tortoise? I’ve reached out to Amy as well any information would be greatly appreciated. thank you and happy New year .
I've never seen one done before, but if anyone can or might try it, it would be Amy!
@@thecedarridgechronicles thank you for your quick reply and have a great new year hope to see much more of yours and Amy s content.much appreciated.i do euros only euros I love it.thanks again.
As always great stuff
How much do you charge to do a European mount?
$80
Hey Daniel, how much do you charge for something like that?
Depends on the specific job, but typically about $20 for a repair and $5 an inch for rebuilt antler
@thecedarridgechronicles thanks bud very much appreciated 👍 keep up the awesome work
I’m at the baking soda neutralize step. Should this deer hide still feel slick - slimy feeling? Thanks for your help.
Yes. As a matter of fact, the baking soda will make it feel kinda funny. Just make sure it is rinsed really well after neutralizing, and then towel dried well before applying the tan.
@@thecedarridgechronicles I have got the tan solution on now. McKenzie tan kit. It says leave tan solution for 4-5 hours then rinse and mount or freeze until ready to mount. What’s your opinion on 4-5 hours for the tan solution? Thanks again. I’m watching your deer mount video as we speak. lol.
I leave mine overnight
Nice job like aways.
Thanks man
Where do you get the expoys
I just added the link in the description in this video. It will take you straight to it.👍
I love your videos ❤️
Thank you
Now how much do you charge for a job like this
I usually charge $20 a tine, $40 on this one.
@@thecedarridgechronicles dam good deal
Good job
Thank you!
You do good work
Thank you
So I followed your videos and have successfully mounted my first whitetail. Now all I have to do is let it dry and epoxy and paint. Thank you again for all of your taxidermy videos. Great information and easier than others I’ve watched. As soon as I figure out how to send you a photo of my mount I will. When you get a fleshing machine please make a video.
Awesome! Follow my page on Facebook and you can share a picture
Thank you for all the great videos! I've watched them all intensely getting ready for my first deer mount . I was able to tag a nice 9 point for my first deer and wanted to try mounting it myself. Your videos made that possible, so thank you! It is not perfect by any means, but it looks good from a far, good enough for my purpose.
One question I had: when I was turning the lips, I must've cut some lip off the top without noticing it, so I did not have enough skin to tuck on the one side. What would you personally do if you didn't have enough lip to tuck into the form on one side?
Thanks again for all the great videos!
Rebuild the lip with epoxy then flock and paint.
Nice. Have you ever considered doing a cast mold of the intact antler section to make a whole matching piece to fill in the void? I know striations will be off on some but may help on some to just fill in cracks with epoxy.
I haven't, but it could certainly be done that way
Great tips, that hive you have in the corner is awesome howd you get that bad boy
Had to cut it out of a tree during bow season with my fingers crossed lol
Hey brother do you tan hides??? And I need a euro mount done
