Just wondering if you tried McKenzie? I just mounted one turning to the left from there. Hope this might help. good luck, Mark

What you need to do is cut the neck of the bear in quarter wedge sections. I'll try to explain on side of the neck wil be 1/4" thick and it will be 3/4" to the other side. Then by turning the wedges the other way the neck will begin to turn to the left. After you have what you need I just foam in the gaps reshape the neck and then mount.

I hope you get the jest of this.
