    Removing a buffalo horn?

    Nice buff! NICER Sharps!!! Unless I'm mistaken we're lookin' at a Shiloh. I shot both of mine with Sharps rifles. The rancher wouldn't allow a front stuffer. I had a Euro mount done on the first bull's skull. When I picked up the meat from the processor he offered a skull from his dumpster when...

    Made a Ball bag!

    Good looking bag! Nothing wrong with the color or home made quality there. :hatsoff: Now those RB's on the other hand look like cannon shot. Are they .58's or larger? Your avatar sure brings back a lot of NC homestead memories...we had WAY too many grays eatin WAY too many guneas and chickens...

    Copper instead of brown???

    I have used that product before and the barrel should be warm/hot enough to make the liquid sizzle during application. You may need to crank up the therms a bit. It it very toxic in the sizzling mode...as in burns soft tissue instantly. Your eyes, inside your mouth and nose. Use appropriate...

    question on working with antler

    Thirds on the bone. Petsmart or other big box pet stores carry a nice supply of bones and rawhide for projects. Good luck!

    Walnut Dye

    My recipe is pretty simple. Toss a bunch of black walnuts into a 5 gallon bucket and fill it half way with water. Wait a while - a week, two weeks, what ever. Come back, it's done. It can then be thinned with water to lighten it. The stuff will stain your skin dark and it will stay that way a...

    $325 for a near new flint GPR..?

    Would you guys consider this a "better get it before it's gone!" deal? Less than 50 shots through it makes it near new in my book. I have yet to buy a flinter and will most likely make that purchase from a builder in the next couple of months - a late Lancaster. (obviously for a LOT more) This...

    repairing a crack in a powder horn

    :cursing: I split one this weekend,too. :cursing: I mixed some two part fast cure epoxy and gently pried the spit open to force epoxy in the crack and let go. Once it cures, I'm hoping the sanding and repolishing will work fine. Mine's not an art horn so the repair may show and that will be...

    Repaired, revived Powder Horn.

    My grand dad is William J. Price. William M. Price is my dad. My brother Bill is WM the second and he named a son WM the third. So the name fits the family. I don't know if anyone is proud of me or not. My ancestry includes many decorated military vets of which I am not. Got an uncle underground...
