Picked up a couple of steer horns to try my luck at powder horn making. The first thing I found out: It's more work than I thought it would be. :shock: I've been scraping the scale with a scraper for a while now trying to get it some what smooth. The scale is actually kind of deep. I cut the first one (the right hand carry) down to what I figured is a suitable length. It's a good 15" measured along the outside curve. This is my first attempt at making a horn. I do have a book I'm working from
Below is pictured the set of horns so you can see kind of a before and my work in progress.
