Powder Horn No. 2

Powder Horn No.2

---

I picked up this horn at an A.J., AZ. flea market, $5 OTD.
Carved an actual size plug from Walnut Burl, not round.
Outside curve of the resulting horn is 12 - 1/8 inches long.
Tip of the horn which was removed is about 2 inches long (not shown).

Short MP4 of the horn, poor quality.
