simple horn
« on: August 28, 2015, 02:52:13 AM »
Made this horn the other day was not happy with the tip so went back into the shop and turned an antler tip for it think it looks so much better .. The horn is 12 1/2" outside curve has a hollowed out Maple base plug that is 2 1/4" diameter has a copper repair on it this horn is thin that you can see thru it the spot where the copper is was a little soft so I reinforced it with the copper .... these two pictures are the after shot



this is the before pictures

 Looks good, I like it with both tips and the patch is really neat.

A good looking "everyday" horn.

Pinned or screw top?

I like the antler tip most, but the first one looks fine to me too.
