Just another contemporary powder horn1

[omarick1948]

Here is just another powder horn I recently finished that is approximately 12 1/2 inches around the outside curve and 2 1/4" across the base. __ I made a hollowed-out beehive base for added powder storage with a solid brass strap knob. ___ I engraved a grumpy old Grizzly on it and used the darker area behind him to kind of represent a cave or den effect.

Thanks for looking!

Horner, I like that allot, really like the bear, your scrims of animals seems to get better with each one you do. wish I had a small lathe to do some of those rounded butts, love that beehive you did.

now, if you put that to your ear and your lucky, you hear the bear growling. if you put that to your ear and you're not lucky, the bear bites your ear off.
