Anyone used this euro mount "Buck Boiler" system?
http://www.cabelas.com/product/Hunting/A...80#BVRRWidgetID
It has very mixed reviews on Cabelas.

That bucket warmer do you use a metal bucket? How hot does it get the water?

i use a plastic bucket, it was a 5 gallon bucket that i cut to about 3.5 gallons. i then cut 2 notches in one end to acomodate the antlers better. that allowed the head to be more level in the water. i also added some brick pieces in the bicket to support the head. and yes it heats the water very hot. in fact the water will boil next to the bucket warmer

Alright, I finally got around to getting a bucket heater per your suggestion, LA Man. I just modified my bucket and intend to thaw the deer head out over night and boil tomorrow.
