bone digger Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 A few years ago I bought 4 broken megs with the idea to make a display with them. Well I finally got around to doing it, I think it turned out quite well! Let me know what you think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bone digger Posted October 8, 2008 Author Share Posted October 8, 2008 It only took me one evening after work, maybe 4-5 hours. I used a piece of soft sandstone I collected at the end of the day after dino hunting. I just shaped it a little with a screwdriver and exacto knife, cut places for the teeth, glued them in and stabalized the whole kit and caboodal.

Maryland Mike Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Pretty cool. What a great idea. I thought about making displays out of interesting looking pieces of driftwood, not just for broken teeth. When I end up with as many broken Megs as Bmorefossil and his dad, I might just do that.
