More of the USA mammoth

One of the very few ever found in a condition to be used. Seems many are found in mines and quarries across the US but most are too bad or brittle to use

They are fully stabilized and this company knows what they are doing in that process. The only company I know of that can do a cross cut section of a tusk and make it stable. No project in mind for it just yet, the right one will come along

In Memoriam Comment by Terry Ray on February 2, 2014 at 21:23: hmmm wooley mammoth?

Comment by Ron Cooper on February 2, 2014 at 21:00: Ron, these would be used for knife handles. Scales, to be more precise.

Comment by Ron Cooper on February 2, 2014 at 5:46: I would be scared to try and work with something that old, exotic and possibly unstable. Of course, with my complete lack of experience, I could probably say the same about a slab of pine and be telling the truth, also. D'oh!
