Squirrel Form Question

Submitted by Tom on 11/30/05 at 5:30 PM. ( reb09@sbcglobal.net ) 67.65.232.161

I looked in the archives and couldn't find the specific answer. I skinned a fox squirrel. Measurements from nose to base of tail is 12" and circ. is 7". The closest form I found was 12" x 8". Will this form work? Squirrel climbing up tree.

Thanks

Always go a little smaller on your form size.


you'll have to modify

Tom ,you can sand it down or shave it down around the cir.should work,but the best thing to do is order your forms a tad smaller like Frank said so you don't have to do all that extra work.

Thanks for the response. I talked to WASCO's taxidermist this morning. Like Frank, he suggested I order a smaller form. Got the squirrel kit and form ordered.
