European Wall Hanger?

[drube75]

I'm posting in the DIY forum because I know folks have figured out some solid ways of hanging a euro, but I am at a loss. Everything I come up with is pretty ugly. Anyone have a recipe for a nice wall mount that wont cost as much as a skull hooker?

Maybe someone can help on this one but there are hangers made of a simple plate and a piece of rebar. You can hardly see them when the skull is stuck onto the rebar. ????

Sounds like a cool idea, any designs out there?

You might try contacting Buff. He has a few euro's in his cabin where the top half of the skull was clean cut to lay completely flat on a wood plaque.

Pat Murphy is a competitor of mine and a friend.

He has a great design for a skull hanger.

Thanks! I get a lot of compliments even though it's just an old fence post and some rusted barbwire

3/4" OD light wall pipe. About 2.5-3" long.
2"x1/8"x 3" flat
Can be painted to match your wall color

I just use my dremel and bore out a "upside down skeleton key hole" on the back of the skull and then hang it on a screw. Drill one right by the spinal cord hole so you can hang it at a 45 and drill one on the back so you can hang it flat if you want. Will try to get some pic's and post em. Very simple and works very well.

I bought these and they work great!

This is how I do mine. Using a dremel, I cut out a "upside down key hole". Then hang em straight on a screw. Very easy and very clean.

My son just got his first Euro back from the taxidermist a couple of weeks ago. The taxidermist simply drilled two holes through the large bones where the skull attaches to the spine, and ran a piece of heavy wire through it and made a loop. I drove a screw anchor into the wall at an angle, and that was that.

Regards,

Dave

I know you said other than skull hookers, but here is how I have all of mine displayed. I cut the Texas out of cedar, clear coated, then attached the hooker to the board. I did this so I could use one small hanger in the wall instead of using two large screws that the hooker requires.

I had the same question a while back because I really didn't want to shell out $30+ dollars for a skull hooker with all the heads I had to hang. I went back and found the thread I started and there have actually been several new ideas added since I last looked. The one I ended up going with was about as easy as they come and has worked really well, but I like a lot of the others that have been put up.

The "L" bracket, two nuts, and a bolt with a slight bend in the bracket was easy and cheap!
