To the left of your screen is an orange SEARCH button. Click on it and then fill in the blank, "repair weathered antlers" or something on that order. All the information you need is there.

I'm new to taxidermy and am only giving you a suggestion. I know that you can rebuild a broken tines with apoxie. Try filling the cracks with apoxie and then staining the antlers. Apoxie will not shrink as it sets up so their won't be any gaps. Hope this helps. MichelleW

Those archives that were suggested? They contain several methods of fixing those cracks. You can even choose which one works best for you.
