Was thinking this needed just a touch more to finish........I came up with this idea..I like deer antlers and fossils,so incorporated them together...

Sweet !! Nice job cleaning that up, and love the antler display stand. I've used pieces of driftwood before, but never thought of using antler. Next time I'll take a long look at the antlers I have gathering dust in my garage. Don

Thanks everyone-I just cut the antler to form in a sitting position,than drill a small hole in the base(big enough for a 6 penny nail) than drill a hole in the bottom of the base of the fossil..........Cut the nail to fit.......... Than glue the nail into the antler(I use gorilla glue) I didn't glue the fossil end,so I could possiblly change it out with something else.........
