A Little Different Shaped Horn

[Tim Crosby]

 The idea for this horn came from one on pg 44 of Grant’s Powder Horns and Their Architecture. I took the liberty of adding three more steps to the body and the thimble.
  It is 8 ½” around the outside curve, the Pine base is about 1 ½”, held in with 9 steel pins, with a handmade nail for the strap. A Brass thimble protects the tip. Finish is AF and Brown shoe polish.

Tim,
   I like it, but what happened to what you've always told me about going too contemporary?

    Rich, the idea for this horn came from a small horn on pg 44 of Grant’s Powder Horns and Their Architecture.
I took the liberty of adding three more steps to the body. As for the thimble, they are not uncommon especially to repair a cracked tip.
 I should have put this in my OP, I will add it.

   Thanks, Tim C.
