This is cool as well. I just bought some of those hinges a while back, I havent used one yet. (then again Im only on like my 4th build) but looks good.

This is a 25 & 1/2 inch scale and this is where it roughly lands when measured out. The bone comes to a radius at the top which the pic doesn't really show but should work just fine. The bone is pretty dense compared to chicken bone which i've seen used before.

why is it so far back on the box..? It`s better to have a bridge saddle with a sharp tip then a wider one. I`ve made deer antler bridges already never out of a deer bone, seems not to be dense enough compared to cow bone bridges.

i just wanted a bigger piece of bone to really show off how pretty it is after it's cleaned up.
