Re-attatching backboard to manikin

Randy, If you are re-attatching the backboard to the form of a deer sized critter the bondo process described by Tim should be fine but if you are working with a large animal I would run 1 or 2 all threaded rods through the backboard and up well into the neck for insurance. Still mix up plenty of bondo and rub it well into the foam and the wood for a solid bond. Enjoy, Aaron H.

Thanks for every thing
