Powder Horn Completed
« on: February 04, 2021, 07:46:09 PM »
Just want to show off the powder horn that I built.  Perfect white body and the tip is natural color
brought out by engrailing.   Curly maple butt cap and Hudson Bay blanket strap.  A horn like this
doesn't come along very often.

If you climb in the saddle, be ready for the ride.

WOW Bull... That is a nice horn. You did a very nice job on the design and all it needs is some nice engraving. Horns like that are few and far between...

That's a good looking horn....nice proportions.  It's a good candidate for some folksy art too.

Art is not an object.  It is the excitement inspired by the object.

Nice clean horn with a simple plug.  Time to take it shooting.
