Unfinished powder horn now for drinking

Recommended Posts

Purchased a vintage powder horn that someone had started and abandoned after a crack was found at the open end.  I treated, sanded, and polished the horn and then decided to make a cross-body strap and hook/loop to carry it as a drinking horn.  I constructed and epoxied a base so the drinking horn could be placed on a flat surface while still holding some of my beer.

I used to drink a lot of beer, and I still like beer a lot! Such a horn woulda been also a useful weapon in my bar fights back then when I studied hard for my bar exam.

Forgive me, I just couldn't resist...

Nice work!
