Hound Horn /Bugle
« on: April 16, 2025, 08:52:58 AM »
Want to make a hunting horn and need some guidance on forming the mouthpiece.  Any experience with making a horn mouthpiece I would appreciate it especially with some photos.  Appears
the mouthpiece would need to be an applied piece.

Jerry. I have only made a few blowing horns, years ago. I just cut the horn down to the wider portion and hollowed out the mouthpiece. They worked adequately. I have heard of using mouthpieces from musical instruments, or using  a mouthpiece for a pattern. I believe the wider the "cavity" the lower the tone. This cavity is 1/2" X 1/2". The horn is about 12 1/2 "tip to tip.
