had a problem with this one,burned through the side when I did the spout hole so I turned a curly maple tip.I just sent a fella on this board a couple of turned tips about a week ago because he did moreless the same thing! :redface:

.........Nice horn SW; I know the feeling when the bit or burning iron comes poking out through the side :cursing: :cursing:
But you have an advantage that most horners don't enjoy....................Your horns are so damn beautiful that no one would notice if you came out through the side in 3 or 4 different places ...... :bow: :bow:
 
That Is a Great looking horn.I thank the turned end look's great. :thumbsup:
 
Nice Horn great job I hope to be able to do something like that one day.

Soggy, my personal horn is like that! Patched it up with bondo! :rotf:
Ain't that always the way?.......The mechanics car is a wreck, the painters house needs a coat of paint, the carpenters front door is fallin' off so a horn builder shouldn't be any different :grin:
I've made a few horns in the past that turned out pretty decent but you should see the one I use for myself :barf: It's one of the first that I tried. Scrimmed it with a nail and blackpowder dissolved with powder solvent.....................I wouldn't part with that horn for the world :grin:
 
What do ya think about some $$$$$$$ fur that thar old un? Kinda makes ya think don't it.
A SUPER Horn SW. Thanks fr sharin.

+1 My best one to date is a left hand horn and I use right handed ones! Shame too, I really like it! My first one is, ugh. But I still love it.

Great looking horn Stumblin Wolf! :bow:
 
Great work SW, how many hours do you think you have in it? A work of fine art for sure. :bow: :bow: :bow:
 
Thanks for the compliments guys, smo, I actually did keep track of how long it took to scrim this one. 22 hours. Building the horn and repairing the spout about 6 hours. So about 28 hours total
 
:shocked2: so Mickey's hands went ALL THE WAY around?? :shocked2: :shocked2: yikes!



sorry.. :redface: i couldn't help it matt... :blah:
