I have turned the back half of the horn into a large powder horn, pretty much something akin to a wagon horn.

The wood has some history, taken from old furniture used in our government buildings in Pretoria before the buildings were refurbished in the 90's.

Thanks guys, but I think it is sometimes more luck than skill.

I'm blessed to have good material to work with. :hatsoff:
 
Heinrich,
That is really nice! Lot bigger than I would use but I can still appriciate your craftsmanship :thumbsup:

Thanks Snake-eyes, that horn is impractically large. I won't use it, still wondering what I'm going to do with it now.

Look at this one, this is a little bag-horn's base plug. Blesbuck horn with wild olive wood. It's in my wife's collection, and took me months to finish.

Heinrich,
I can't say it enough; your work is creative awe-inspiring :thumbsup: You and Titus are making truely South African horns and setting a new trend in muzzleloading accessories.
 
greetings,

i tried to get some horns like you have there. but when i went to the zoo with a saw, they asked me in no uncertain terms to leave.

with attitudes like that, how do they expect me to make an african type horn. some people are so rude :shocked2:

..ttfn..grampa..
 
:grin: :grin: :grin:

Grampa, I get that attitude when I go to a cattle farm... :winking:
 
hi ho titus,

you young fellas can wrestle a bull for the horns. but us old goats have to hide a saw behind our back while sneaking up on them saying, here cow, cow. here cow, cow.

PS.. got it figgured out. you christiaan and heinrich are in s africa and the kirr and romeo are in bavaria :grin:

BTW, on another horn post davy has a picture of a bavarian bp shooter in a press.

..ttfn..grampa..
