Raw horn..... How do you clear out webbings in cavity?

[Mad Mucus]

G'day all,

Got myself a pair of fresh raw 6" cow horns, freebies from work/meatworks, to have a first go at making a primer horn. They're out on an ants nest being stripped at the moment.

How do I clear out the internal cavity which is clogged with webbed type pockets?

Thanks

Mucus

If you mean the bone core, boil it until it you can shake or knock it out.

:grin: Yep, Wick Ellerbe is right, just boil them out. Just a word of caution; If you're married and want to remaine that way, don't use one of the Mrs. good cooking pots, and do it out doors . The smell can be something that you don't want to unleash in your kitchen. :rotf:

Deer huntin' story
A hunter and his friend were sitting in a tall tower stand near highway 481 in Maverick Co., TX, early one cold opening morning.
Suddenly, a huge non-typical buck walked out over the corn they had spread in the senderos w/a tailgate feeder.
Moving quickly, the hunter carefully aimed the Leupold scope on his .300 mag at the unsuspecting buck. As he was about to squeeze the trigger on this deer of a lifetime, his friend alerted him to a funeral procession passing slowly by down 481.
The hunter pulled away from the gunstock, set the rifle down, took off his hat, bowed his head, and then closed his eyes in prayer.
His friend was stunned. "Wow, that is the most thoughtful and touching thing I have ever seen you do!
The hunter looked up and said .."Yeah well we WUZ married for 35 years!" :nono:
