Contemporary Horn
« on: April 23, 2012, 02:47:33 AM »
Custom horn for a co-worker...made to his specifications.  Horn is 14" on the IC and 15 1/4 on the OC.  Maple plugs.  aged with Rit (yellow, orange, and pinch of brown.)  ring at base dyed with Rit dk. brown.  (no relation by-the-way). Blank spot left on horn to record kills.  Posted pics in a before and after to see the process/difference fin the raw to finished horn.

 Great set of progressive pix and another Great horn. I think this is a good example of why we color them.

Yet another supporter.  Super horn.  Like the buck....alot.
Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.

Great work!  How does the dark spout area wear?  Does the stain leave the spout with use?

You guy's who can scrim AMAZE me! Thats one heck of a horn! Beautiful color work. I have a couple of horns from Matt Blosser,and cant stop staring at them! Yours are just like that. The owner will probably miss quite a few deer because he's lookin' at his horn!

 Good Job!!!!!!

Now that's a horn to be passed down through the generations. Congratulations on a work of art.
