Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

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.
