I like it! trying to figure out how everyone does the " scallops"?

PC: I assume you have a lathe for turning plugs and the antler spout. How did you cut the screw threads? Just regular taps and dies?
That is a really striking horn!

I a little speak english and I'm not sure if I understand your question...

As for the cuts on the ring it them little file. Semi-circular notch on the horn with a knife and a chisel engraving, [thus emerged such curves]

I have no lathe - antlers and cap were made ”‹”‹by hand, file...
Screw threads have done something like that:

Most Horners don't usually use a lathe for threading,but sometimes use a lathe to round the area to be threaded or just round by filing.

Threads are cut with a Tap and Die. You can also do it by using a bolt and nut, but I'll let you look on THE HORNERS BENCH for doing it that way.
