Thanks. Little fish are hard because their scales are to thin and one wrong move goes right through. Their bones are sensitive as well. :doh!:

Good work. All by hand?

Thanks. 90% if this was done with my Micro Jack 4. Bulk removal (what little there was) was done with my Aro. All work was done under my microscope at 10x.

Thank you sir. It is a nice one for sure. I’ll be happy to trade it back to you if you want to get rid of a few more unprepared fish in your hoard. :D

Let me give this some thought.  I do have more than I can prep,, so I might go for this.

The thing is,,, all these unprepped fish also belong to my 2 youngest sons.  I would have to go through them and see what they want, what I want and see whats left over.  There are lots and lots of slabs including some really big ones so there would be lots left over, but getting me and them all together at the fossil shed could be tuff?   So if you get attached i wont get too mad?  Ha!!!
