[QUOTE="Phil, post: 95435, member: 4151"] For the big one: Just a glass frame where there is basically a box an inch or so deep with a glass insert at the front. Got it from a store in the UK, called IKEA. The skin was taken when fresh and a small piece of aquarium foam inserted into the Carapace and abdomen to plump them up. Then tiny blobs of glue (I used gorilla glue) on the feet and under the Carapce and abdomen sp that it sticks in the desored pose. Note. Gorilla glue expands so craft glue probably better For the little one: I bought 10 tiny vials from eBay. They have a rubber cork. All I did was put a fresh moult from a sling and put the cork lid on sealing the air inside. No preservatives at all. Still looks like the pic about 8 months on. None of the legs or anything have snapped off and that's despite it being picked up and along with he big one, a regular in show and tells at my daughtef's school.....☺ Hope this helps inspire you......lol [/QUOTE]
