Va. Screw Tip
« on: December 20, 2020, 09:17:43 PM »
 This is my take on a horn on pages 250-251 of Dr. Jay Hopkins book
Bone Tipped & Banded Horns Vol I it is listed as being from Rockingham Co. The original being a bit smaller.
 It is about 13" around the outside curve and 10" tip-to-tip. The Cherry butt is held by four Iron pins and has a staple for the strap, it is hollowed out slightly. The tip is horns, threaded 5/8-11. Color is AF followed by Brown Shoe polish.
