Recreating The 18th Century powder Horn, by Scott and Cathy Sibley will get you well started.

The one I'm currently writing.  Tips and tricks not included in the Sibley book.   Although I'll admit theirs is a good book

still working on it.  It's not finished yet.   Started taking pictures and making notes while building my last horn.   Decided to write some detailed instructions on how to.    If I can figure out how to add a picture here, I'll post a pic of the horn.

Ok here's my attempt at adding a picture
