    Default Africa mounts are in there new home

    Somehow i have misplaced the demolition pictures. Anyway, i completely gutted this room to the studs. Removed two windows to add wall space and stripped the floor to bare concrete. The wife is still looking for a few pieces to go in but were pretty much complete.

    Great room and mounts TH. My wife won't let me remodel anymore because she says it always costs twice as much and takes twice as much time as I tell her it will.

    It cost more than i thought, and it definatly took longer than i thought. It still cost half about half what a contractor wanted. More money for a 2012 safari !!!

    Your trophy room looks great, I personally really like the pedestal mounts and the Warthogs skull mounts.
