Artificial snake backing
« on: February 18, 2013, 12:02:00 PM »
Does anyone know a good source for this material other than 3rivers or kustom king? These guys want $20 plus 6 for shipping. The $20 is bad enough but the $6 is ridiculous.

The worst part is it aint nothing but a fabric print.  May as well be fire trucks and police cars.  Imitation...

I took the fabric to a couple of fabric stores and they couldn't tell me what the fabric is?

This is from big auction site, sprayed over it with lifeways taxidermy paints largemouth bass iridescent top coat. It gives it a little life like movement.12 bucks plus shipping got enough to do 10 bows.

when i got mine from 3 rivers i just bought other supplies that i needed along with it and the total shipping was 6 bucks makes it not hurt so much anyway. I loved the way they looked on the bow though

I tried that too but everything I needed was more expensive than my local dealer who doesn't handle fake snakeskin.
