    Oil Hardener

    Make sure you carefully dry the cloths or brushes you use with cobalt and japan driers. They can self combust.

    My look so far

    I'm curious about the trousers. And this is just a question, I don't really know anything about the period your working on. So, would the trousers of that day be what they call bird tail, maybe swallow tail, (i think) at the waist, where the buttons for suspenders would be attached, instead of...

    Horn No. 15

    Nice, I wish I lived closer to you, I'd make a pest of myself and show up at your house to get you to show me how to do that scrimming work. :thumbsup: :hatsoff: :grin: "Illegitimus non carborundum est" "don't let the bastards grind you down".

    How to make a powder horn?

    I bought the Sibleys book based on a recomendation from here. It's a great book, I would have liked a bit more detail in the scrimshaw section though. However, my horn is coming along, slowly.

    Doing what I like best.

    Ok, my Son tells me he has a friend at work that shoots squirls for food, and he's tried some squirrel stew and liked it. So, I made him a promise I'd give some of their stew a try next time they make up a batch. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. :thumbsup:

    Scottish all-metal pistol

    The ones I've seen are called Murdoch of Doune pistols. I doubt the regular troops of the 42nd (Black watch) could afford to carry them, officers would have though. As for pipes and kilts.....ummmmm....(not to go to far off topic) that's me without the bonnet my band mate (as he's known here...

    the last of the mohicans

    The theme song that runs through the movie is called The Gael. The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards do an incredible rendition. Hold on to your seats fellas, this is good stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rSBYJcG8pg&feature=related

    scrimshaw work

    Thanks guts for the reply. Eagleeye, that's some fine work there. I realize now one of the problems is my horn isn't smooth enough. Fortunately it's thick enough to rework where I've messed up. I will defiantly post a pic or two when I'm done. Unless I'm too embarrassed by it.

    scrimshaw work

    Ok, I have my horn all ready to scrimshaw, and I started in on it. What a mess of it I made. So I ended up taking a file to the horn and cleaned all of the cuts off. So my question is. My "scrimshaw" looked like a bunch of jagged cuts than some of the nice smooth lines that I've seen on horns. I...
