Powder Horn History#9
« on: August 02, 2020, 04:45:56 PM »
Reposting old threads that were lost after the forum cleanup from broken threads or lost pics from photobucket, here's an early build from 10 or so years ago. Maybe some one can use it as a reference or  ideas for their own build! Paneled throat, and maple beehive base and spout plugs of maple, engrailed ring for front strap attachment.

 :hairy This is a beautiful piece of work. You are an amazing craftsman, my friend. Your work continues to inspire me (as well as make me more than slightly jealous) with the skill you display. :bow :bow :bow
