Weighing in at half an ounce, Spinal Tamp is a lightweight, beautifully brutal structure, ready to tamp the most obstinate ash. The base measures approximately a half inch and total height is 4 inches. Spinal tamp has a brass rod that runs through it’s core and into the carved briar base. The entire piece has a wet look about it, with the base showing off a kind of dripping wet effect. The vertebrae are real snake vertebrae with minute amounts of my own proprietary Monstrosity Muck (patent pending) bonding agent between each one.
