Couple new horns
« on: January 30, 2015, 06:18:20 PM »
Got a lathe this fall so I've been playing a bit.  Most of my time I've been making turkey calls, but did crank out a couple horns.  I like the squared off butt one the best, one piece antler tip on that.

I'm liking the top one the best, myself.
Looking good.  Thanks for sharing the photos.

I don't think there's anything wrong with either one of them.  Nice job and thanks for posting.

I agree with acorn both look very good.

They both  look well done. I too like the squared off butt's, however I think the tip on the top horn would really set off the bottom horn. Just no pleasing some of us! :D :D  Keep up the good work.

I went absolutely nuts making things when I first got my lathe and I have not slowed down much in 5 years. Great looking horns and very nice turnings but I agree with Skillman on the mix and match ;) ;D

Both are very nice, but that top one just trips my trigger a little more!
