old wood and horns

[3bailey3]

we have a old house that is on my parents place that a guy that worked for my Grandfather lived, it is started to fall in, probably 80 or more years old now and I have been trying to save some of the wood in it, here are a few slabs I got and had some horns laying around and put them together.

Heck yeah, that's awesome. Here's one I did on wood from our old barn built in the 1850's.  We homesteaded our place in 1827 and have a few barns and little outbuildings with lots of old wood.  Something special when I harvest one on the same ground.

Always great to re purpose old lumbar. I have been using old Oak timbers that are very weathered to mount deer and a coyote. I do suggest anyone doing this take care to insure the boards are not infested. I spray them down with bug spray and store in a freezer for at least a year. I then coat with a couple layers of polyurethane to seal. This is especially important if whats being mounted has hair on it not to mention to safe guard any other mounted critters in the room.

Those look awesome! Old barn wood looks sweet with antlers or a turkey fan on it.
