unfortunatly i have not found a good supplier,except the woods.copperhead is a bit thinner than rattlesnake or other skins,so it may not manufacture well for mass sale.i do know its a bit ricky to work with,tho another builder,kerry way,explained a simple way to prep the skin for application www.southriverrodsllc.com Re: snake skin

couple other tricks is to use different color metallic markers to color the blank under the skins . the snake is kinda silvery under the skin, not black like most blanks. I also use masking tape to remove scales from skins prior to gluing them on. less finish required to get a smooth job. Re: snake skin

Yup, I picked up some from the Skin Shop a couple of yrs ago at the ICRBE. They ARE thin! I've personally had no luck trying to flesh one out w/o tearing/perforating. Re: snake skin

I also got some from the skin shop but it is long gone. I have had success with my own by fleshing it out and using a product called snake tan. The trick is to use a dull, flat object when fleshing it out this way you don't put holes in the skin. Re: snake skin
