My little buffalo powder horn project is coming along....first one I ever made. Still have some sanding, pinning the pine base plug and then polish it up. :)

Made by hand, no power tools....old school. Hand saw, rasp, files, sandpaper. The only cheat was some glue for the base plug to get it airtight.

The powderhorn came out wonderfully.
That rifle is truly a beautiful firearm.

Beautiful work on the horn, can't wait to see pictures of the new rifle when it comes in. :D

I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.
