Conner Prairie Horn Class Part 2
« on: October 15, 2009, 06:28:39 PM »
This part deals with the preparation of the tip, dying, and other finishing steps. First is threading and turning the tip.









Here's my Lancaster attempt:






Art prepares the dye:






Group shellacing party:


Making nails:




Loading Art's truck:


Class Picture:


And a grand time was had by all.

Hi Tim,
I have a third batch of display horns tha I'll get up sometime today.  I need to sort them for duplicates.  It was a great learning experience to me.  I'm amazed at Art's efficiency in horn making.
