    Anyone know how to fix it? I tries to glue but no matter wut i tried it wasn't strong enough. Just wondering if there was an easy quick fix. I plan I'm putting them on a fake skull and have it dipped, but don't have the money yet and want to display the antlers in the mean time.

    Gorilla Glue. I was drilling holes in a skull to mount up at camp last year and split it. A little Gorilla Glue and one night sitting, the next day they were stronger than before I broke them.

    Then you were using to big a bit or too fast a drill speed.

    More like I was pushing down too hard while drilling, probably had something to do with the fact that it wasn't my rack and the number of beers I drank before taking on the task. :moose:

    see, I don't think thats being a prick at all. I offered a suggestion of using screws to fix his mount. Then the other guy said something about breaking a skull once with a drill. I was a machinist for years and usually if you break a bit or your part you were doing something wrong. So I assumed he was using the wrong speed or wrong bit/old bit. Then he confirmed it was indeed his fault and I said ahhh thought so.

    that's not mean or prickish in the slightest.

    Dude, are you serious? You get banned and then you register another account within an hour to argue with the mod? Get a life.

    And for the record, it did strick me as you being a prick, before I even read the part where Dan banned you (again).
