    I didn't realize that the tip of a horn is actually solid. This is a beautifully made piece. Thanks for sharing your technique.

      Thank you Canuck Nancy42, some horns are more solid than others but usually you get 3-4” of solid material.

    That's a fine looking Raven Brian👍 enjoyed watching the process of making the grooves as well as the carving, I have started on my first Skrim project!! involving a deer antler...quickly discovering the intense hardness of the material! has added many more levels of respect to the hobby, thanks very much for the inspiration Brian🙂

      Hi Janson, thanks for being here with us! Yes, antler is hard and tough also. Bone is hard but brittle in comparison. That rolled up magazine trick works well with antler though. I can’t wait to see what you do with it, it will be awesome.

    You can use a broken beer bottle and scrape it down to get the scale of. Corona bottles or something thick like that seems to work best.

      Howdy DavidS, happy to have you along. Check out our videos on scrimshaw and we would love to see what you come up with. Horn is a little trickier to work because of the fibrous nature of it. I would suggest using a sharp knife rather than a scribe. It’s a lot of fun to do-enjoy!!

    I just have one question, is the resulting powder (resulting from the scrubbing) too dangerous for breathing?
    Great video!!

    • @StockmanOriginal
      @StockmanOriginal  Год назад +1

      Hello Nik, thank you for checking out our channel. Yeah,the dust from sanding horn is probably not good for you on a prolonged exposure, but nether is most woods as well. I work in these materials a lot and I have a dust collection system that works very well. But light exposure such as sanding one horn is not too bad. It would be better if it was done outdoors.

    damn i wanna try this but can't find any local farms that would give these away. way too expensive to buy online! 20-30 bucks for 1 horn and i'll most definitely mess up my first few attempts. can you practise this on wood? or a similar material before going onto the real thing?

      @StockmanOriginal  Год назад

      Hey BOG LURKER, thanks for coming along with us. Where are you located? Every community has a butcher or processing place. I would look for one of those things. Yes you can practice on wood to get familiar with reduction carving. Keep in touch and let me know what you come up with.

    I understood that antler is “hair”, and horn is not.

    • @StockmanOriginal
      @StockmanOriginal  2 года назад +1

      Hello Kevin, thank you so much for joining us, your support means everything to us. As far as horn and antler goes, it’s just the opposite. Horn, claw, fingernail, and hoof all keratin( hair). You can see it in the grain structure and smell it when you work with it. Antler on the other hand is definitely in the bone family. I have heard that it actually a fast growing, controlled form of bone cancer and it even has a memory. For instance, if a deer damages an antler during the velvet stage of growth and it grows deformed, next year the antler will show the same deformity even though no damage occurs that year.
