Specializing in articulation and preservation of all organic life. No shark was killed with the intent for preservation.
(13)

We strive to preserve the beauty unseen by many and we offer preservations of all forms of nature, inside and out. We believe in "waste not", so as to help advance man's understanding and conquer curiosity, we work with many industries to bring about useful preservation mounts with what is otherwise considered a commercial waste, such as the heads and tails of fish, as you see with many sharks in

our portfolio. All shark are harvested under NOAA laws for the meat market, and we benefit from the cut waste, thereby preventing unnecessary harvest. "Conservation through Education; Education through Preservation."

Keep an eye out folks, in the next few weeks, a number of great hammerhead shark skulls will finish up and some of which aren't spoken for... Which means that they will be available for anyone interested. They will likely be ready mid January or so

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I've been incredibly poor at updating here recently and I apologize for that. I've been working, though I haven't been keeping up as much as I really should have.

Since I last posted, a bull shark skull of decent size has been completed and is available to anyone interested. I'll try to get some images up later today, as I'm knee deep in shark in the shop as we speak. Still have a few small to large blacktip shark skulls available. I have two blacknose shark skulls available as well.

I still have a ton of bulk and individual wet specimens available for those interested. Spotted ratfish, cutlass, octopus, remora babies and baby horseshoe crabs, to name a few. If you're interested, please shoot the page a message.

I've been working diligently on the full articulation of the tiger shark skeleton that I posted back in late September, alongside an adult Atlantic sharpnose. I hope to have progress pictures on those soon. The tiger shark skeleton already has a home it's going to, but the Atlantic sharpnose has yet to be claimed and will be available.

There are a number of shipments going out to a bunch of folks at the start of next week. If you haven't received a message from me and are expecting finished projects we've discussed since I've jumped back into the hot seat with Boneworx, please, please reach out to me so I can give you an update, in case I missed anyone.

Be safe while enjoying yourselves this long holiday weekend. I hope everyone has a blast!

Blacktip skulls available!

15/10/2023

1x finetooth, 4x spinner and 4x blacktip skulls going up on braces now and will be available to ship in about a week to week and a half for anyone looking for a skull that isn't already sold to someone else.

15/10/2023

It's hammer time! Another great hammer coming off the braces fixing to go through final detailing and onto its new home. Sclerotic rings (eyes) will be attached in the end.

This specimen is just shy of 21" across.

06/10/2023

Wet specimen preparation this weekend going on! If you want to get your hands on cool stuff through pre-order, now's the time to do that! Bulk discounts are available.

The big list of wet specimens going through fixation this weekend:

Remora babies (only 3 available)
Cutlassfish
Octopus
Baby southern stingray (only one available)
Chimeras
A single baby scalloped hammerhead

I'll be starting these guys tonight most likely. Tomorrow and the rest of the weekend: bracing some of the largest of stuff that's been waiting to dry for available space. Fellas that have been waiting on your hammerhead skulls from me, this means your projects are going through the final swing on things.

The majority of the weekend is going to be spent working on the big full bodies I posted mid-Sept - tiger and great hammerhead full skeletons.

Projects ongoing that are going through the drying process as we speak or likely by next weekend: spinner, blacktip, finetooth and blacknose shark skulls. These skulls are available to whoever is interested and are not salted for any one particular customer. If you need a shark skull and don't want to wait for one to be made upon order, this is the time. Shoot my page a message!

02/10/2023

If anyone's interested, I've got a lot of horseshoe crab babies in need of a good forever home. These crabs were legally and ethically obtained from a private research group's deceased specimens. They are available for $30 (including shipping for the continental United States residents) and these can be exported as well, for my international folk that may be interested. Please message my page if you're interested in them!

Sorry for the lack of an update. Been incredibly busy. I promise some really cool pics are coming in the near future as I continue to work on more and more.

Thank you guys, again, for your patience as I move forward with Backwoods Boneworx, once more.

Just restocked skull materials on spinners, bull, finetooth (a couple), blacktip (a ton), great hammer, sharpnose...

Young adult blacktip and spinner, as well as an adult sharpnose (whole) for full skeletons.

Southern stingray babies, remora and Cutlass for wet specimens.

Then there's these beasts I'm working over time as I'm able in the near future. These will take a hot minute to complete.

And I expect the start of October to kick off with a few boney fish skulls I need to get caught up on - for those of you that have outstanding projects with me in that area.

Those with shark skulls that have been updated here in the last month about progress on your outstanding projects that are near or ready to ship... I'm having those out this week.

Happy Labor Day weekend everyone. Have fun and be safe! A number of available shark skulls, jaws, and more are coming off the braces for the last detailing, then sealing and will be ready to go to those interested next week.

Additionally, the WIP container posted previously with the specimens that are now coming off the braces... That has also been filled with the next set in the processing train and will be going up for bracing likely this weekend. This next batch includes a number of outstanding hammerhead shark skulls that needed to be completed for clients, but also includes a lot of Carcharhinidae, too.

I'll post some pictures when I can. Stay tuned.

Hello all. I need you to be aware that a few days ago, upon visiting the doctor, I learned I need immediate-as-possible surgery and that has been slated for Sept 5. It will require a few weeks to recover, they said. I don't foresee myself not working during that time, but I don't know how much it'll impact my proficiency. I want everyone to know that it may, or it may not, impact times on outstanding projects by a couple weeks. I'm hoping not, but don't have a definitive answer for you right now.

Thanks for understanding,

Zach
