nice horns and rifle.

That it is. Grew up up there and the folks still live there. Not much work in Cranberry so I now live down close to Syracuse.

I broke a drill bit in the spout. :](*,) I'm going to saw it off and place in a brass spout instead. Just havn't had time to do any of my hobby work lately. Hopefully I'll be able to sit and do some work this month.
By the way, I like that bag knife you posted. That's really neat.

Ended up putting in a brass spout. Not done yet, but here's what I've got so far. I hope antiquing the horn will bring out the scrimshaw.

Oops. Put the photos in backwards. Line reads, "With strength I hold this horn. With courage I hold the line."

Here is a glimpse of the base. Pretty busy.
