These were some that I tried out different methods on........
THis is my 1st horn, and the one I use....it wil hold a pound of powder, and keep it dry~I like the size, and the attachments I used. The neck was carved and colored the old way with knife/file and dyed a antique finish.The brass end was added because the wood plug grain was ugly to me...so I covered it with brass...you might be able to see it in this picture:
I like making horns, and I have some 'stashed', but I am no longer allowed BSWBO, to file/sand in the house.....so they will wait till springtime
besides....I have TWO rifles to work on....my 3rd rifle for me, well, lets just say the wally world CEO's will have a better christmas then us, so my $$ on my will be used to better advantage. I have the wood, so I will make one for myself with mom's walnut wood in a year or so......in time.....
