Very nice work Tim! Great tutorial! One good turned horn tip out of four is sure a time killer!

Yes I turn the horn rather than the dye. I started going it this way because I didn't have a die wrench big enough to fit the dies I was using. It has worked well over the years so I just forgot about a wrench. I do leave the stick I use to hold the horn in it while I cut the threads I works like a lever and makes it easier to turn the horn. It is done one turn, back out 1/2 turn and continue. The lube is Dr. Jackson's Leather Rejuvenator.
