:bulgy-eyes::bulgy-eyes: Chester: I buy my skins (not only snake) from either of the two following sites. Both are great quality and fast delivery. I also bought an entire spitting cobra skin complete with head, that I use on my table at woodworking or pen shows. This realy draws people into your display. First one is Bud Camp." budcamp@budcamp.com Look under Remnants on the sidebar, then Pen Makers Assortment. Price is $39.99 for a mixed box of thin skins (mostly snake). that can be used for penmaking. You will have to make up a lot of pens to use up the box!! Second is Implora SnakeSkin@implora.com They also have a wide varity of different skins and sell wallets, checkbook covers, and purses. They have a nice selection of rattle snakes. I have been very pleased with both sites. If you want to see some of there products made up, look under my photos. Jim S
