Warthog, impala, springbok, and kudu are at the top of my list. If I am able to save enough money, gemsbok may be on the table as well. What I'm really wrestling with right now is how to have them prepared. Right now I'm tossing around the idea of tanning the hides of the impala and springbok, and putting the skull mount in the center of the hides on the wall, and then putting the warthog tusk or skull mount between them. The kudu a shoulder or front leg shoulder mount.
Phoenix Phil, are you happy with your mounts from Moredou? Anybody else had work done there that can comment on their work?
Great ideas Action Bob! I checked out skullhooker and looks like a great product. Who doesn't like powder coated steel? It is really getting hard to shut my mind off at night and I have so long to wait still.
By the way, is it feasible to buy a rough diamond while in S.A.? I know the little lady at home would be ecstatic if I had something significant for her when I got back.
You think it is hard to shut your mind off now, wait until you've been back a week!
It is my understanding that diamonds are just like cameras, computers and other goods. You just need to declare them and pay the duty. Not sure how they calculate the duty. Given that "I read on the internet that..." is pretty much worthless in this situation, perhaps a phone call to the US customs office is in order.
