Here is a picture of the horns I completed last year. There are a wide variety and styles. Some are for customers, some are for family and the two in the display cases, I have for myself until I make some better. One is completely covered with scrimshaw with a map of the Chesapeake Bay and Eastern Shore. The other is older style, more along the Tansel style, since I'm originaly from Indiana too. I was greatly influenced by their style of horns and am in the process of making a replica as closely as I can, including the "trademark" birdsmouth throat. Several of the smaller priming horns on the right have been boiled and flattened. That's always fun. Thanks for looking.

You certainly have been a busy man. Are there any closeups of the detailing??

What an impressive lineup! You do great work. Any chance of closeups of the flattened horns?
