Finished Powder Horn (#10)

[Ponderosaman]

Well done sir! That hunter motif stirred my breast for the hunt.

 

[Magicald]

Nicely done!

 

[RMSLS1]

Great job!!

Can you elaborate more on the "nail in a stick"? Also were do you get your horns from?

 

[slspletskp]

Incredible!

 

[windini]

In a word: Wow!

 

[LME]

Incredible!

Incredible is an understatement!

Seriously, do you sell these?

These horns are really enjoyable to make. It’s a great way to be creative and productive, but they just don’t make enough wood dust in the shop!

Your work and artistry are awesome! I would bet that it rivals some horns found in historical exhibit’s reporting on the F&I period . I have a run of the mill humdrum horn that I am tempted to work on now that I have seen what you have created. Possibly I can dremel my initials into mine!!

 

[NeilMacleod]

Awesome! great work

Really great Job, and love your creativity !

Don't want to steal secrets, but could we see a pic of your "nail-in-a-stick" ?

I hope you have a backup horn for when you poke a hole in the horn with your Dremel tool.

Learn to use the sharp nail .

No secrets to tell- yes these are my high-tech stylus tools. Nails in dowels. The short stubby one makes wider cuts and the long narrow one I use for finer lines like cross-hatching. The small file is used for dressing the tips to create a small burr that cuts into the horn.

I would steer away from using a dremel tool for lettering unless you're well experienced and have the right bits. It can become a disaster.

Seriously, do you sell these?

Yes, I do - I have sold about seven of them right here or in another BP forum.

You're really kind, thanks!

I hope to horn like you one day!

Appreciate the pic and info. This is something I'd like to try sometime.

I'm in my first year of this addiction to ML, and am so glad I found this site. I have purchased guns and stuff, and gained soooo much knowledge from the generous souls here like you and others.

Thanks, Eric
