I know of several instances where a taxidermist mounted a large elk or moose and found he couldn't get it out of the doorway! Fortunately I was forewarned and made one antler detachable on a world record caribou i mounted. (muzzleloader).



I made a carving once where the log was brought into the shop and then stood up on end (weighed 5 ton). Worked on this piece for three years during which I measured it a few times and all seemed good. The carving got to fragile to lay back down sideways and I was 1" to high to fit under the header of the double doorway. Ended up jacking the header and roof up to get it out......
