Preferred by medical professionals for orthopedic instruction of students and patients, because it incorporates all the soft tissues applicable to orthopedics — nerves, arteries, muscles and ligaments.

Cast from the bones of a nearly-perfect adult male specimen, utilizing a special process which replicates even the fine details of the original.

Classic Craftsmanship. Each bone is individually cast by hand, then assembled and articulated by hand - no short cuts or hurry-up techniques.
Enduring Performance. Built to last. Only the finest, most durable, and yes, most expensive resins, duplicating the heft, color and texture of real bone, are utilized. Corrosion-resistance is maximized by the exclusive use of stainless-steel wire and custom stainless hardware components for articulation.

Built-in extras - most not even available on competitive skeletons - are standard with our Deluxe Skeleton Reproductions.
These include:
X-ray opacity: just like real bone due to a special additive introduced during the casting process
• a window cut into the frontal sinus
• a breakaway maxilla giving access to the paranasal sinuses
• one hand and one foot (on opposite sides) articulated with springs, permitting natural flexion
• detachable calvaria
• spring-mounted detachable mandible
• detachable major components (disarticulates into 12 parts)
• Full One-Year Warranty (manufacturer’s replacement parts and repair service always available.)

In addition to all the above features, the bones of the right side of this skeleton are hand-painted to show muscle origins in red and insertions in blue. Muscle names are hand-lettered at each muscle origin and insertion location.
