It is especially useful for field pinning because it can hold many specimens yet weighs under 4 ounces. It is ideal for allowing butterfly wings to spread and dry. It has five slots through the board, measuring from 1/8″ (.32cm) to 5/8″ (1.6cm) accommodating most specimen sizes on a single board. The slot is at a 90 degree angle to the board (There is no slant).
- Designed for spreading insect wings prior to mounting. It is ideal for allowing butterfly wings to spread and dry.
- Our board has five grooves measuring from 1/8″ (.32cm) to 5/8″ (1.6cm) accommodating most specimen sizes on a single board.
- Place a moth, butterfly, or other insect's body in the indentation on the spreading board, and pin a thin strip of paper over each wing to hold them flat until they dry out.
- Deep groves cut into a 1-3/4″-thick (4.4cm)styrofoam block allow for perfect positioning of specimens using any pin length.
- Light weight, sturdy and economical.

It’s a good idea in theory BUT the price is outrageous!!! It’s nothing but a slab of styrofoam with some grooves cut into it. Theres no way this cost more than 10 cents to make! The greedy price gouging needs to STOP!!!!

It gets the job done but it's just standard styrofoam and very thin at the bottom. Mine didn't sit flat so I put foam on the bottom because I knew it would break soon enough. I could have made the same thing for a fraction of the price.

Way over priced for a peice of cheap and generic Styrofoam with 5 cuts almost 30$I guess shame on me for expecting something better for the price. Total rip off. Do not buy, it's just cheap peice Styrofoam with 5 cuts that costs less than 7$

Worked for me with a little modification. Had to put pegboard on the bottom of mount so it would not crack in half. I also applied bottom stick pads to the pegboard.
