First horn since back surgery
« on: January 08, 2012, 05:21:27 AM »
OK I still have yet to be released by my Doc so I really went slow on this horn when I started to hurt I stopped for a day then went back at it.. It is my interpretation of the first horn (figure 1) in C.Michael Briggs Book Piedmont North Carolina Banded Powder Horns Hunting Bags & Bullet Molds.. The horn is 14" outside curve the base is cherry and hollowed out set up for right side carry the tip is antler ...

Yet another great horn from your bench. I'm very glad to see you getting back to it. Take care, my friend.
