Brownies Beach Riker Mount Sampler


Darktooth

Recommended Posts

Last summer I picked up a couple riker mounts and have been experimenting with different ways to display my collection. I finally decided to do a Brownies Beach Sampler. I wanted to put together a sample of all the different species that I have found there over the years. I also wanted to put in my best quality teeth, so size was not a factor. Enclosed in the mount is a Hemi, thresher, cowshark, hammerhead, angel, mako, meg, lemon, requiem, sandtiger, and two different tigers.

Nice Dave.

Bulldozers and dirt Bulldozers and dirt
behind the trailer, my desert
Them red clay piles are heaven on earth
I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt

Turned out well! Nice variety for your sampler.

Thanks guys. For years I have used gem jar trays to house my sharkteeth. While I still use them for the majority of my collection, I am really liking the Riker mounts for this type of displays. I need to get some more so I can make similar displays for my N.J. and Potomac River finds.

Very nice brother looks great! If you want a laser engraved name plate for it (or others) let me know and I will make some up for you. Just let me know the size, font, and text you want on it. Once I get home I will post some pics of ones that I have already done.

Thanks, actually I had nameplates engraved in brass for some of the first specimens I found.It got images bit pricey after awhile but they look really nice. That's a nice collection you got there yourself. That mako and cowshark are sweet.

@Darktooth Nice, I bet the contrast in colors between the teeth and brass is awesome!

@Darktooth remind me to post here in a week. I just sent off all my display cases to get some plaques put on them. It should look really good. Roughly 300 teeth in three cases. :popcorn:
