No base yet Roger!! I am working on that!! Base will be no big feature in this..I put majority of detail in the heads. You might want to just allow for a peg or extended machine screw at the inside base of yoor display case and then slip the bamboo stake over that and epoxy. The base would likely be bulky in the case if I were to provide one....let me know! OH..and can you PLEASE show us the case!! I have some commissions that all want cases by the way and maybe you are our man to contract that part to!!

Tom-See pm, I sent a picture of my idea of the case. I like the cube base on some of the older shrunken heads you made. the base of the stand is 5" deep , I can add more room to the front if necessary. 40' high
from base to top.

ALOHA!!
Thanks to all who picked up heads at Oasis!! Just wanted to give a final shout here...I had several people wanting heads here after Oasis and will be making a few more this week..then it's it fo rthe season. I will HOPEFULLY make more next year, but my schedule looks brutal so I cannot promise. I can customize the two styles for anyone ordering now...spiked or sewn lips..blowdart/feathers and bead decor...etc at no additional cost to customize right now. Thanks again!! GREAT OASIS!!
~~~THOR Send me a PM asap if you want one..unless you are one of the ones already spoken to!

Hey Tom...
You may have already heard about this...but,
Look up Piers Gibbon...
He is doing a documentary on the Shuar...
And seems to have actual headshrinking footage from the 1960s...
It will air here in the States sometime in November on Nat Geo...
This should be very cool...I cant wait!!!
You did a SUPER great job on recreating these...
I cant wait to get mine...
Thanks So Much!!!
