i need to get a few cervical vertebre cast up, and i really dont want to buy an entire spine for about 4 or 5 bones.

anyone have a mold of one?

thanks

You can get spine sections of just 3 or 4 vertebrae from sellers on eBay.
$15 range.
 
edit - crap, all i found were lumbar.

weird, i looked for spine and only got massive anatomical models and life sized entire spinal columns.

off to search some more :)

thanks for the heads up.

you know, this is probably obvious to everyone but still worth saying, taken out of context this conversation would assuredly fall well within the realm of "pretty frickin' distrubing".
 
I did some snooping on eBay and you can find skulls with cervical vertebrae attached for about $30, I think. If you don't mind getting some bits you won't use, that could be a good option for you.
 
I always assumed everyone had a skeleton or two hangin around or at the very least a bag o' bones.

I'm tellin ya...Never throw nuthin' away...:D

I could see that one coming from a few miles away..... :lol


Does it matter if you have cervical, thoracic, lumbar or sacral?
 
Matt, I REALLY appreciate the offer (who doesn't have bones laying around?). But, since I am making a head/neck, I kinda need em to be cervical. Lumbar would just look... too huge coming out of the base of the neck. I might be able to get away with thoracic since they are just a little wider, but lumbar ones are just too wide.

I have seen the kits on ebay where it's the skull and 3 or 4 cervical vertebra but I already have a skull. I guess I could use another, but I didn't want to lob the extra cash out. Nothing in particular, just money is tight nowadays and the less I spend on a project the happier I am :lol

I was hoping someone here had a mold of one, we tend to have molds of the weirdest things sometimes heh.

Appreciate the help guys. Matt, if you happen to have a spare skull with no calvarium cut I am in need of one of them :)

Chris, let me check one more place before you put any cash down anywhere...

I do contract work for the Science Center, my buddies there might have some some molds I could borrow.
