June 4, 201115 yr Been working on this for about a month in my spare time. Forged from 1 1/2" and 1" mild steel round stock. Cap and arrowhead backplate are 14 gauge. Thanks goes to Rick Jay for sharing his knowledge.
June 5, 201115 yr John, that is a beautiful set of antlers. How the heck did you do that? That is really cool. Thanks for sharing. :)

June 5, 201115 yr That sounds good. I'll try to get with you later to see when we can do that. Thanks. :)
June 5, 201115 yr The only problem with steel deer is that it neccesitates the use of armor piercing ammo to take one down, and the need for a portable oxy/acetylene rig to gut it... besides the steaks must be tougher than all get out. Purty darn cool! Nice work.
June 5, 201115 yr I agree with Steve, ummmm ummm aaa WOW no others words come to mind... just WOW Nark <º))><
June 6, 201115 yr Oh JOHN! That is as fine a piece of work as I've seen in a long time! No problem Duckman: AP I have and a cordless right angle grinder with cutoff blades is imminently packable. Frankly I'm deciding which wall it should hang on as I type. Oh yeah, John, I'd like a lesson please would you mind dropping in on our next club meeting? I'm SURE the guys would love to meet you.

June 6, 201115 yr Very nice work indeed! Amazing texture, originally i thought they were real antlers!
June 9, 201115 yr OddDuck---actually the rare earth magnets in the salt lick make it easy as long as the warden doesn't catch you!
