Buffalo Skull Built Out Of Iron
Being involved in the buffalo industry for more than 15 years, I discovered the spiritual significance and interest many people had with buffalo skulls. I've sold many skulls from the butcher bulls that I've raised to people from many walks of life. This inspired me to build a replica of a buffalo skull out of iron. I now make buffalo skulls for sale.
    I started with a real skull in my shop and built the replica to scale, making the curved horns out of pipe. Then I framed the skull and covered it with sheet metal to make it three dimensional. A shield and four metal feathers gives the skull a life-like resemblance to the real thing. These pieces of art can be used inside or outside, and can be painted or left to corrode in a natural rustic state which seems to bring out an age-old sense of mystery and intrigue. .
