Help with Rattler Board mount

[JT's Boneyard]

I just finished tanning my first rattlesnake and was wanting to apply black felt as a backing and then stretch it out on a piece of cypress. 

What kind of glue should I use to attach the felt to the skin?  How should I attach it to the board?  Thanks for the help

The best way is to sew it to the felt, it is very professional looking. If not, use contact cement . Hot glue will work but  might, discolor the skin from the heat
