I have spent more dollars on my pet bison than I have ever spent on fossil related tools. I’ve purchased:
- A poster on bovine skull anatomy. I couldn’t find a decent free one online.
- Butvar 76
- Paraloid B72 (auto correct kept wanting to “paranoid” LOL)
- Cyanoacrylate (More of it. Ran out during extraction)
- A couple books. One is on “consolidants, adhesives and coatings” in conservation. It is somewhat more technical than what I was expecting. Not beyond my comprehension, but definitely a more in-depth study kind of read. Its detailed chemistry of all the materials we hear about and use. Including those listed above.
The Cow and Bison book by Finsley

I’m definitely going to need this when I go trying to prep the skull.
