Thurston County horn
« on: May 02, 2013, 03:46:18 AM »
Here is a horn that I intend to make a number of. Very simple applied horn tip (in this case a two piece) and a butt that I really like. Stained with aquafortis. Since I live in Thurston County, I'm gonna name it for my home. I figure It's OK to have a little fun.

I like that very much, nice clean lines and a well done end plug.  What kind of wood did you use?

The butt is Maple, hollowed out and stained with aquafortis. Quick and easy.

I like the horn.  Very nice.  The end cap looks great.
I would like to have one these horns.

 Looks very Northeast Pennsylvaniaish. Well done.
