I'm going to begin mounting a crow soon and was wondering how you could attach it to an antler as a base..I've seen mounts like this and think they look great, just don't know how to attach the feet to the antler without the wire being visible. Any help would be appreciated.

Take a drill bit that is slightly larger then your wire. Drill a hole into the antler (but not through) and cut your wire so that it fits into the hole. Next put some 5 minute epoxi into the hole and set your wires into the predrilled holed and let it set up. And there you have it.
Take care

that was a lot simpler than I thought it would be :) Thanks for the info.

Score the ends of the wire with a rough file or a coarse bit in your dremel or foredom tool prior to gluing to get a better bond between the wire and the epoxy.
