I finally got around to doing a euro mount on my 9pt from this year. I have two previously completed mounts that were hanging in my shop and decided to make a plaque for all three. I bought a piece of 200 yr old cypress and did a little sanding and finishing. Here they sit, 8pt, 9pt and 10pt.

Black bracket in my shop is a skull hooker (mini i think) and the ones on the wood are 90* corner brackets i bent.

Nice job,,, any way you can show that 90* bracket you bent.
I have been wanting to build the same but sort of more like a post in a corner with several euros I have hanging off at various heights. Would use a rustic drift wood or reclaimed barnyard find for the post.
I have tried to make various hangers over the years but haven’t come up with an easy cheap design.

The cypress needed another year and is missing some bedazzle on it.

All i did was sand from 60-320 grit. Only used laquer about 8 coats. Lightly sand as needed every few coats with 320.
