[QUOTE="ShootnMathews, post: 1129842, member: 59915"] Sure. As I stated above, I made these myself out of 3" corner brackets and a stick of 1/4" steel rod. The diamond spacer blocks of wood behind the bracket aren't just for show. I actually needed them to get the right degree of tilt I wanted to the heads without the antlers touching the wall. The steel rod I curved by beating it with a hammer before welding it to the bracket. In the back of the skull is a dime sized depression that the rod curves into which locks the head in place. The skulls must be tilted back ( another reason for the spacer) before picking them up to remove them from the hooks. And I wanted to be able to move them around as I see fit with no fuss. One day I'll clean up the welds and paint these. I literally just zapped these together and slapped it on the wall. Didn't even knock the slag off. [/QUOTE]
