JorisVV Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 This would be my first Mammoth Molar I'm preparing again in 10 years. My first one was a 10lb Mammoth molar. This one is quite small of course since it's from a calf. It has been laying in right water for 1,5 months and at the moment I'm glueing the last 4 pieces since it's precision work with this small piece. I'm really glad I picked up on this one (Found in Maasvlakte, Netherlands). I found it in pretty poor condition you guys can see in the pictures. But I have never seen this molar, so I'm amazed anyways! I will show you guys the full picture when it is all done! If anyone has tips too for my next prepairs, I will take any advice and tips! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronzviking Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 Awesome find! Did you have to dig to uncover it? I'd love to see a picture of the 10lb tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the root of the tooth you are presenting. http://pristis.wix.com/the-demijohn-page What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time? ---Shakespeare, The Tempest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
