Funnel Weaver, cf. Hololena sp.. The short leg-like appendages near the spider’s mouth are pedipalps, not fangs.

Agree. here you can see my house guest Hololena, zoom in you just can see the fangs folded under the end of he mouth parts between the pedipalps.

I see the chelacerae, but not the fangs themselves. Am I missing them?

Sorry Impact, I should have specified that I was asking Dan. When a comment is added it goes to everyone who has been in the conversation, it can be a bit messy. I don’t know why they aren’t in order of time passing. Maybe it goes by our local time zones.
