[h=2]I decided not to do this, but it'd be a pretty cool office ornament.

Instructions for preserving a rattlesnake rattle:[/h]1 Find the piece of the rattlesnake tail that is closest to the rattlesnake's body. Inside this rattle is the “blood rattler” (meat tissue).
2 Cut through the end of the snake’s body directly above this rattle using the paring knife. Remove the rattle from the snake’s body.
3 Reach inside the rattle using your fingers or tweezers and pull this piece of meat out. If you pull carefully and slowly the meat should come out in one piece.
4 Place the rattle in a warm and dry location until it dries completely. Without the meat inside the rattle, it will dry quickly to produce a rattle that will last indefinitely.
