The need to hunt deeply and firmly laid in male nature. Although modern chapters of families and there are no more acute need to drag the hungry family to the carcass of the dead animal, they are still manit wildlife. For some, this is a way to change the situation and relax, for someone - excellent training, for others - a profitable look of earnings. And every hunter appreciates trophies. This is the memory of the feat, visual proof of his own heroism.
Even invented the term " trophy hunting" People who hunt for a bear are considered to be a trophy skin, skull and claws of the killed animal. Of the killed birds, they are stuffed or retaining their claws and the most beautiful feathers. Kaban and moose heads are also highly appreciated. But the most valuable exhibit in the collection of any hunter is the horns of empty animals - moose, deer, maral or bison. Even if the animal has only one horn for some reasons, you can make a beautiful wall decoration from it. Not always the horns of hoofs of the same size or form. But it does not stop the avid collectors at all.
An indicator of success of any hunter is considered a collection of horns of one animal. They are collected after elk or deer will reset the horns. It is necessary to monitor the ungulate, know all the place of habitat, the main routes of movement. The main exhibit is a skull with horns, the hunter extracts after the death of the animal.
Horn hoofs most often volumetric and heavy. For them, a special shield or a medallion is made. Medallions for hunting trophies can be purchased in the store or make own hands. Even a person without special knowledge and skills can cope with this.
The main function of the medallion is to hold the high weight of the trophy. Therefore, they are made from wooden boards Thickness at least 4 cm. In order to hang the exhibit on the wall, 2 brackets made of metal are fixed to the medallion.
But forget about the aesthetic role of the medallion for the horns is also not worth it. After all, too large and bright designs will distract attention from the Trophy. The size should also be appropriate.
The form can be chosen to your liking. The main thing is that the product obtained perfectly fit into the interior of the room where it will be.
Often on the medallion under the horn fasten the tag with data about the date of shooting and the form of the animal.
There are many varieties of medallions: round, square, shielding, with carved elements. Create a medallion for horns with your own hands is easy.
Stages of creating a medallion:
Medallion for horns ready!
There are several basic stages of processing horns and skulls:
The final stage remained - fixing the trophy on the medallion. If the horns are small, they are attached to the base with the help of a wire. Massive - attach to self-drawing. Medallions for moose horns must be as reliable as possible, since they are a long load.
In the elk skull and other hoofed animals there is a hole that is better to close with wooden bar. To do this, cut a wooden "blank", which will be in size to fit the hole of the skull, insert it into the hole and close everything with a putty. If necessary, you can stall the surface.
The hunter trophy, designed with his own hands, will be the perfect decoration of the interior, it can be expelled expensive or make a bright exhibit of exhibitions. Hunting trophies horns are very valued abroad.
In our video you will find a master class, how to make a medallion with your own hands.
My husband bought a horns and posted on the wall. What does it mean? - From the expanses of the Internet, the question sounded.
Sympathy answered: - Probably his dreams ...
Someone seemed: - He is an esthete with a congenital sense of taste. One wargo: - the owl can not be in the house, the horns can be.
The Council sounded to check the husband of the techko: - What if? ...))
And someone remembered that "the formations on the heads of deer have a disgusting force from damage and unclean strength - their clutch and drink with water."
Someone crushed: "I bought the same, did not instruct. Rog deer. And on the wall you can hang everything.
To the category of "trolling" can be attributed: - it suggests. | "You need to ask why a horn of her husband." | - Maybe it's not deer, but for memory?!?
Not without shifting stories:
At one time, my husband and I bought deer horns (in Norway), more precisely, I bought, my husband resisted ... The horns were laying 4 years in the basement, because I did not know where to attach them. In the corridor, the husband forbade, and there was no place in my room. Finally, I found them on the TV, look gorgeous. As for our relationship with her husband, they did not undergo special changes - as they were, and remained.
The mother-in-law in the house hang horn. In the house, everything is fine, but ... our friend was photographed under these horns and after some time scalked treason and divorce. I do not know whether the coincidence is, but no one even gets up under these horns.
I have a horn in my house already 20 years old. As long as the next man does not rise under the horn, everything is OK.
We also had - as a result we divorced. Throw them !!!
Hence the conclusion: the Russian man to the horns are not used to the deer. In a family of two persons there will always be the one that will be "for", and the one that will be "against".
But there is in the light of "Rogulyuba - drives", which flood the disputed element all their home.
1. Quick Rural District Columbia. In the house, like a barn, lives a very famous photographer and two of his dogs in Manhattan:
2. Dining room, settled old furniture. Horn bulls.
3. In the living room, too, anti-kvartiat, made in France, years old, 200 years ago:
5. In the authentic house only the bedroom issues a glamorous profession of the host:
6. Everything else is a chaotic world broccus. Mixing expensive things with simple.
7. Vintage wooden table.
8. Terrace, where the company in 12 people will easily fit. Rusty chairs and table dating 1900.

Introductory - elk horns are lying without affairs. More precisely, one horn. Big, branched, heavy. I want to fix on a skidder and hang on the wall. This is the question - how to fix about the board? After all, the horns are really heavy, and the fastening area is small. I see something like drilled at the end of the "stem" of the horns (the fact that the head was) hole and fix the steel pin with a thread on 6-8 there. And then scream with a nut to the plank. I'm in the right direction I think? If so, then the question is how to fix the pin?

There are such studs-with threads under the nut on one side and threads like self-drawing on the other. Well or EuroNT (thick self-tapping screw with turnkey head) ...

Hello, dear members of the forum! All with the past holidays! I often read the forum, a lot of useful learned. Thank you for paying time. There is a need to make removable horns at the elk trophy head. The hairpin with nuts itself suggests itself. But there are nuances: how to fix the nut so that the horn to complete the spinning to get into the desired position is symmetrically with the second and not unscrewed under its own weight. And back rotational motion The horns interfere with the ears. Maybe there is some simple way to make removable horns?
Fish-men 08.01.2012 - 18:36
Hello, Pegi Putuok. Secure the cuts of the profile of rectangular in the horns square cross sectionIn turn, in the mannequin of the head, fasten, for example, on the car putty, the same profile, but a little more (so that the horns of the horns enter the head profile), so. You can insert a "horns in the head" and they will not spin.

Komariki.
I will drive a hole in the horn, cutting into it threads. Dealer I screw the bolt through the medallion in the horn. A little lower I put a small pin, this pin is already from the horns to the medallion. Nizhny pin plant on epoxy
Single horn makes approximately the current instead of a second pin to drive a hole through the medallion in the rogue. When you spin the usual self-load. It does not carry and simply prevents scrolling around the axis, the bolt.
According to the two horns, Fish-Men correctly advises, although I did, "Welded Lobovina", that is, not on the putty, and fledin the profile, it turns out the design that it is later screwed into place of the lobovina. There are no pictures.
Ruslan33 09.01.2012 - 13:01
Ideally, everything as Fishman wrote, I myself did so one time, but with artificial horns, because they are much easier than natural in Lobovin, and the bar was mounted in the horns internal size Profile. The most difficult to catch the symmetry, I advise you before cutting the horns to make some risks. Just.

And who is how attacking the horns of the moose cut down with the frontal bone?
Thoughts are how to do it, but suddenly ...
Eduard18 04/09/2012 - 20:51
Unfortunately there are no photos, I'll try it. If you look at the skull from the side of the spike, you can see two front-side walls of the brain department of the skull. They are connected at the level of the rear edge of the eye and diverge towards the back of the head. So, they are symmetric and these bones have enough thickness and height for zverdlovka, cutting the M6x1 threads and fastening with bolts (with countersunk heads) to the medallion, can with superclaim. Outside it is not visible. The main thing when drilling does not pass "through the" frontal bone. Good luck!
ivan44 04/15/2012 - 02:06
i advise yourself before freeing the horns make some risksEverything is much easier. Made as Fishmen said, but there is a number of subtleties. First, a deep hole is drilled in the frontal bone with still unsolved horns. Then the pipe quad is lit into this hole. sections. And only after that the horn is scolded together with a stunned pipe. It remains only to insert and fix suitable quad in one of the unpacked parts. Rod, and all - the horn will get up exactly in its place. This is the standard Amer reception. Taxidermists, for Kamch. Elk is the most suitable option.

Finding the horns in general is not so simple, they are very inconspicuous in the forest, however, from time to time, they still come across their eyes. And how after that they do not grab them with you? The truth often, they are then just dusting somewhere in the attic without hope ever decorate the wall.
So it was and for me, two single horns with two and three processes were kept until time. Everything was going to find use, but besides desire, it was also necessary to want. And now, finally, he gathered, after all, he decided to embody it into life.
Everyone who is going to do also, the question arises - how best to do it? In principle, information about this process is sufficient, but only here everything is described by words. The work is not complicated, but not having the opportunity to see everything clearly, someone can cause difficulties. Therefore, we present the process of stages with photos.
For the first time we take the object easier. Here, we note that as described below, you can only come with ordinary finds. Really trophy and unique horns are better to trust to treat professionals.
It was found in, still in the snow, on the forest-free expensive. Driving past the fresh Lesseki saw a protruding sharp bitch ahead, but as it turned out - a horn of a semi-coating moose (1.5-2.5 years).
What a tool will need
Tool List:
Tius clearance
Drill / Screwdriver
Tap
Drill
Gorotok.
Hairpin
File
Bashed our "trophy" will be very simple way - With a hairpin with a thread. The diameter of it may be like this:
For small horns, d \u003d 6mm is suitable for large - d \u003d 8-10mm. In stores they are sold long in the meter, so as not to overpay, you can buy a regular long bolt, from which there is a hand-made metal with a piece of necessary length.
It (length), by the way, you need to think over in advance, but about it is slightly lower.
Order of work
The first thing drills the hole under the heel, and so that the hole is where it is necessary, the horns are fixing. This can be done on the workbench, press the clamp to the table or here in such plumbing.
In order not to damage the surface of the processes between sponges we pave a plate. We clamp the drill on the metal into the drill and drove. The bone is thrilled not to say that it is easy, but not difficult, the main thing in this business is to observe the verticality and the given direction.
Let's say a few words about the selection of materials. Bolt in our case M8 (8x1.25), based on this and select the diameter of the drill and the size of the taps. It is done very simple: out of 8mm, we subtract the step of the thread 1.25, we get 6.75, but it is true for the metal, we have more soft Material, Therefore, we take the drill even less, in this case - 6,3mm.
By tags - it is desirable to chop the thread with a set consisting of two pieces:
- №1 - Chernova (acute approach, one risk, right in the photo),
- №2 - clean (tip stupid, two notches).
In this case, the carving is cleaner, but if there is only one of them, it will come down, just ride it there and back several times.
To cut the thread, the tap needs to clamp somewhere, for this, special winds are sold, if there is no desire to spend it, you can choose the usual horn key. For example, the M8 tester will suit CL.4x5mm.
The length to which you want to fly and then cut the thread, we determine by itself based on the weight of the horns. In this case, we had about 40mm.
The length of the hairpins should be such that it is enough (without stock) for screwing up to the end of the horn, and then into the wall. In the place where it will be attached drills a hole for any anciera bolt 10mm, with an internal stud 8mm.
Anchor drove into the wall, screw off, and measure its length. This length will be equal to the one that comes out of the horns, considering this and we cry the hairpin.
In case the horn you intend to attach not immediately to the wall, but first on the medallion, then we also take into account the thickness of the board
Before fastening the product with a wall or a medallion, we apply it and look - is it even smoothly fit. Mixing protrusions are stepping with a file.
If the wall is wooden, then we do as follows: the horns through the bolt bolt to the medallion, for this, in it the perovy drill or drilling of the forstner, choose the groove under the bolt head. And then the medallion with converts to the wall.
Traditionally, horns roeli, deer and elk are considered one of the best hunting trophies. The presence of horns on the wall indicates the reputation of the hunter itself. In addition, trophies will give the room a special charm. However, this is possible only if the installation is carried out correctly. Judging by numerous reviews, most novice hunters do not know how to hang the moose horns on the wall. In this case, there are their nuances that should be known. About how to adapt your hands on the wall of the horns of the horns, a deer and moose, you will learn by reading this article.
First of all, you need to get horns. They can be found in the forest, but they, judging by the reviews, they often have a sufficiently unattractive look. It is best if it is a horns mined on the hunt or purchased. Before starting to install, they are carefully processed in boiling water, then bleached and degreased. It is more expedient to entrust this work to professionals.
The one who does not know how to hang an elk horns on the wall, experts recommend first to decide what it will be hanging. For example, you can hang all the head of the mined beast, and you can - only the horns.
Therefore, weighing trophies will be different. In this regard, homemade craftsman will have to decide what kind of fastening it is to choose. Mostly catch the horns on a small plate.
For this, the horns are drilled and insert into their base a large pin with chopped threads. Next, with its help, the trophy is screwed into the board and hang on the wall. You can also use a metal profile. In this case, the table is not needed, since the profile itself will be attached to the wall. However, the first method is the most common. About how to hang a horn of moose on the wall, more detailed further.
In order to hang the horns on the wall, you need to get the following tools:
Very part of the beginners who do not know how to hang the horns of the moose, are interested in how to choose what drill. According to experts, decide on cutting nozzle simply. It is necessary to proceed from the size of the bolt itself and the tap. Next takes out a thread step. For example, if the metal drill is used 8 x 1.25 mm, then it turns out 6.75 mm. However, this indicator is applicable to work with metal surfaces. Since the horn is softer, you can use a smaller drill - 6.3 mm.
First of all the horns should be equipped with a special hole under the heel. Work will be on the workbench, equipped with plumbing visits. If the homemade craftic does not have this tool, then its clamps will be helped.
When the horns are securely fixed, you can proceed to drilling. If the material hangs out, the hole will not work in the place where it is necessary. In order for the vice did not damage the processes, a plate is installed between horns and sponges. At this stage, it is important that the drill is in a vertical position and did not change the specified direction. Next, with the help of taps, a thread is cut. Specialists advise work with two tags. It is necessary to start a draft with a sharp tip and one risk, and complete - finish with a blunt tip and two notches. Pretty threads are cut with special gates.
If the homemade craftsman wants to save, it can replace the branded gorotok by a regular horn key. For example, with a M8 tier operate with 4 x 5 mm keys. What depth should be a hole, the wizard decides, based on how horns have. If the trophy weighs decently, the hole should be deep. The optimal is the length of at least 4 cm. Then proceed to screwing the studs, it is desirable that it should be screwed to the stop without stock.
At this stage, the length of the hairpins protruding from the horns should be measured. Exactly on the same depth in the wall should be made. Then, determining the place where the trophy will hang, start work. A 10 mm anchor is inserted into the resulting hole, its screw is unscrewed and its size is determined. It must correspond to a stiletto protruding from the horns. If necessary, part can simply sprill. Immediately before installing the trophy applied to the wall and look like it is adjacent to it.
