    Drilling quahog shells...question??

    Steve's right; watch the pressure. I've drilled quite a few clam shells so that I could use them for novelty targets. I never drilled them under water but that makes sense to me (next time I'll try that) I just used light pressure and low rpm's while using regular 1/8" hss drills .Works 90% of...

    Nice looking rifle; congrats to both the builder and the owner. :thumbsup: When I first saw the "round ball hole"............I thought oh..oh.. R/C has entered jethro's post shoot and couldn't find a 2X4 so he used one of his rifles for a target. :wink: Soggy

    Viewer Discretion Advised!

    :thumbsup: ..........NICE!!!. You know I think that really adds to the character of the horn. If something is suposed to represent an item that is a couple of hundred years old it should have some "dings" in it. :hmm: ..........the horn may be a little rough, but there ain't nothin' rough...

    Wood Carving Kit Wanted

    I bought my first tools from Little Shavers and they were A-1 . Rick (the owner) is a top notch guy to deal with. Unless you are in a great hurry I'd wait and buy from Little Shavers. Having said that ; here's a company that I have dealt with up here in Canada and they are also great to deal...

    Powder Horn Build-Along

    :thumbsup: Good point!........most of us horn makers are guilty of just that. We (or at least I'm guilty )try to make this very fancy horn that only some rich merchant, or military officer of high rank could have owned. When in fact I suspect that the little common guy had a very plain (but...

    Swampy's right! google up "scrimshaw" or better still get the book "Recreating the 18th Century Powderhorn" by Scott Sibly. And for god's sake if you attempt to use a wood burner do it out doors :barf: :barf: :grin:
