First time mounting a fawn and was wandering what adhesive to use? I think the water base epo glue I use to mount WT deer shoulder mounts will dry to quickly before completing.

Why would you think that?

With a fawn, I usually glue only the section I'm working with. As they are ventral cut, I do the face and neck area first. Then after the skin is taxiied over the mannikin ready to sew up, I reach up under the body skin and put a fairly thick layer on top of the back. I sew and then massage the glue around to the areas I want stuck. Do drying problems for me.


When you

complete the face and neck area first do you tuck the eyes, mouth and nose?
