Beaver foot wall mount 2-3″

$16.95

These beaver feet are approximately 2-3 inches long, not including screw, and have been professionally dried and preserved via taxidermy for a unique looking totem or decoration. These beaver feet have had a screw added so you can screw it into a wall or other object. Beaver feet can hold quite a bit of weight on them, maybe 10 keys or more, as long as the wall can hold onto the screw. Beaver foot wall mounts can also be used to hang other items such as necklaces, lanyards, charms, etc, and they also just look plain weird and creepy sticking out of a wall all by themselves. Photos are stock photos showing examples of typical paws. Out of country buyers my apologies but due to US export law, we are unable to ship wildlife product out of country.

The details: These beaver feet have a wood screw that sticks out about 5/8 inches from the foot. Since this item is not heavily weight bearing, wood screws can work for all manner of walls, plaster, drywall, etc. along with wood of course.

To install: You will probably want to drill a smaller test hole first and then screw by hand the paw into the test hole. This way the paw screws in without having to put too much pressure on the foot. So first use a drill or sturdy dremel tool to drill a pilot hole about the same depth as the length of the screw but with a smaller diameter than the threads of the screw. Remember to make your pilot hole less wide than the screw. Then you can screw the screw into the pilot hole by hand and the threads of the screw will bite into and grab onto the sides of the hole.

If the wall is dense strong material like wood, make the pilot hole diameter almost as large as the threads of the screw. If the wall is crumbly soft material like dry wall, make the pilot hole maybe 2/3rds the diameter of the screw. The goal is to be able to screw on the foot snugly but without having to crank too hard while screwing it in. These feet are sturdy but not as sturdy as wood or metal. If you make the pilot hole too small and then test and see the gator foot is not screwing in easily, you can always enlarge the hole and try again, so better to start out too small than too large for the pilot hole. If you want to get really fancy, you can buy a matching wall anchor from the hardware store and install that first, and then screw the paw into the wall anchor, but that much is probably overkill plus it means you have to make a much bigger hole in the wall.
