Once you remove all the meat rub borax on it. Have a peice of cardboard ready(As big as the fan if not bigger). Lay a paper towell where the bottom of the fan will be. Mix some bondo and put it on the back/bottom of the fan.
Position the fan on the cardboard and put bondo on the front/bottom of the fan. When the bondo is cool, remove and tear of the paper towell form the bondo. When you mount the fan you can drill a hole thru the bondo.
Good luck!

thanks to you both for the helpful advice. Woodmaster, do you let it dry for a while after putting the borax on the cleaned tail? the nwtf artical mentions I think a 2 week drying time before doing the bondo.

No trying time is required. The main thing is to get all the meat & fat off that you can.
My taxidermist has been using this method for over 30 years.
