Thanks to Noble Savage Outdoors for the big help with downloading the template of the Broadhead arrow mount. I'm currently working on this mount and it's looking great!
David, This is the sharpest looking and easiest to replicate euro plaque I've seen. Great job!!! Thanks for making the template free on your website! Looks just like G5 Montec broadhead!
You probably could, but I wanted to have a visible line from the wood joint where the broadhead would screw into the arrow. Also, just made it easier for me to make.
Normally I mix some JB weld or Bondo up and glob it into the base of the brain cavity. Once it sets up, I flatten it on a disk or belt sander to whatever angle you want it to sit on the plaque. Then drill a pilot hole all the way through the plaque into the JB weld or Bondo. Open up the hole in the plaque to let a screw spin freely, countersink the back of the plaque, and put one screw through the plaque into the skull.
I did. I used picture frame hangers from a hardware store on this one. In the past, I have also just drilled a small hole at and angle upward, just enough to fit a small nail head or screw head for hanging on the wall. Both work pretty well.
Sorry I tried creating a paper template through some free drafting programs but couldn't get anything to work. If you message me through my website, I can send you a top down photo of it that you can mess with the sizing and print until it comes out the correct size. Then use that as a template.

No problem, glad I could help. Hope your plaque turns out great!

What’s the best way to mount the actual skull to the plaque?

Did you end up using a 1 x 6 and cutting it down?
How do I get the template for it
The link is in the description.
Do you put any mounting hardware on the back to attach to the wall?
I did. I used picture frame hangers from a hardware store on this one. In the past, I have also just drilled a small hole at and angle upward, just enough to fit a small nail head or screw head for hanging on the wall. Both work pretty well.
Has anyone found the paper template??
