I`m workin on a Northwest Trade Gun, 42inch 20ga. Got stalled on it about a month ago and really need to get it going again. Some other projects in the works are a hunting frock and a pair of wool leggings. Got the parts cut out for the frock but still need to start the sewing part. I`m also repairing a well used and beat up old elkskin shooting bag I`ve had for years and don`t want to throw out. I plan on doing a befor and after thread on that project when I get it done in a day or so.

Horns mainly, did have to make a few pairs of mocs last month for my nieces. Patiently waiting on my order of more horns to come in so that I can get back to work...lol.

Very nice work. I truly like those simple classic styled horns.

I sure do like the color of that bottom horn!
Don't think I've ever seen that combination before.
From what I see of it, it appears to be a very darkish red, neither Cherry or Mahogany.

How would you describe that color?
Really really neat and equally unique, at least to my old eyes!
