Members froginthefog Posted August 14, 2010 Members Report Posted August 14, 2010 Any ideas on how I should replace the horn wrap and cap?? thanks..Kelly sorry about all the same pics..won't happen next time..kels Quote
Members Stamper Posted August 16, 2010 Members Report Posted August 16, 2010 The old wrap is pretty much gone so there's nothing to work off of. I would surgically remove the fork cover and put a completely fresh wrap and cap on. Then you can re-glue and nail the fork cover back on like original. JD Quote
Members Goldshot Ron Posted September 6, 2010 Members Report Posted September 6, 2010 Kelly, I would recommend that you recover the horn cap, then add a horn wrap which would cover the bare stem of the horn. This way, you wouldn't have to remove the fork cover which can be a bear of a job, and may even require a whole new fork cover in the end. There are a couple of "how to's" in the Leatherworker and Saddle Maker Journal, or Dusty Johnson covers this in his saddle making book (about $20.00). Ron Quote
