    Matt, I could have had that done for you, returned, and money in OUR pockets by now. See, you should have followed your first instinct. LOL Just messing.

  13. Re: My version of major antler repair

    Anyone,
    Question on pricing for a antler re-build. What do you charge? How much per inch, per tine, per job? I have done two "Small" rebuilds for a buddy of mine and the word has gotten out that I can do a rebuild, nothing compared to Matt's rebuild. I have a customer that has asked me to do one, but I don't know what to charge? Any help?

    All I can get is not a good answer! LOL.........

    Thanks, Eric

    Re: My version of major antler repair

    I do several. I charge 20.00 an inch for anything dealing with main beams and 10.00 an inch for simple tine repair. May sound cheap, which it is, but with my method I can do one tine with about 30 minutes of actual work. To learn my method, come to one of my classes. ;D
