Perhaps the most interesting part of their work so far, is using Antler Sculpt, a 2-part epoxy putty, to craft replacements for flipper bones that were missing. Now that the bulk of the prep work is completed, articulation of the bones onto steel framing will soon begin.

They have also agreed to work with the Curator of Collections and Exhibitions to create a display case that explains some of the process of putting a skeleton together. Both projects, the skeletal articulation and the display, are new experi- ences for them, but they have not shied away from either.
