my latest science project.......

[ShipOfFools37]

In my ichthyology classes we boiled whole fish to the point where they were just soft enough and picked off all the mean and such. gets the scales off pretty well and if you know your fish anatomy, you can just put them back together with a little super glue, we did that with a few good sized Rockfish (Morone Saxatilis) and they turned out pretty well.

You want to really challenge yourself, try it with any type of flounder or flatfish!

[latshki]

well I can't wait to see it
this project reminds me of a coaster I got in cuba that has a scorpian in it
it is made of some kind of epoxy and it looks like there was an acrilic disc that the scorpian and stuff was placed on and then the epoxy is poured over it

by the way I love your projects and netting midnight
