sorry if this is posted in the wrong section, but I have a good friend who is looking for moose antlers for his artwork. He does some pretty amazing carvings, and is willing to barter his work for antlers, for example, if you were to donate 3-4 antlers, he would provide you with one carving for yourself out of your donated racks. if anyone is interested, please feel free to pm me, and i will hook you up with him. Here is an example of what he does, he can also carve pretty much any scene you might want on your rack if you were to donate to him
thanks

I have one antler I picked up a few years ago, and live fairly close.Need a phone number or address. He might as well have it, as a squirrel is working at it occasionally. P M me? Dave

Thanks for the responses so far, looks like my buddy will have a few more racks to work on :-D, he can also be commisioned to work on your personal rack if you so desire, maybe do something like these for you

Your buddy sure does great work. I have two complete racks that I would donate for a piece like that. One has about a 56" spread and the other I believe is about 47". I live on the Island ( Campbell River ) if he has a way to get them. Both sets are bleached out as they have been hanging out side.

Does he carve on sheds or just harvested antlers? I found a massive shed two years ago that could use a home.
