What i would like to know is:

is it possible to dissect the muscles apart from each other and from the bones to show the ligaments underneath????

i am trying to do so, yet it seems difficult to seperate the muscles from their origin or insertion at the elbow joint over the ligaments without removing completely the muscles.

that is, i am finding it difficult to remove keep the muscles there and at the same time expose the ligaments over the joints.

i really would appreciate any info you give me as this project will drive me crazy!

thanks to anyone who tries (i give the 10 points=)

Beginning with medial side, elbow joint can be exposed by dissecting deep. Medial side is direct bones of lower end of humerus and upper end of ulna, Dissection is easy as, by the time joint is exposed all muscles would have been exposed.
