Thank you for the video. So you use mineral oil, and then use boiled linseed?, and then as last step the beeswax? For someone who doesn't have these tools, would you just use a file to create the slots in the horn? In order: Draw the slots File out the slots Use grinding paper to clean the slots Polishing Use mineral oil to clean the horn Put boiled linseed oil on it and let sit over night Trim and clean up the rim Clean inside with soapy water Wax inside with beeswax Dip rim in beeswax

I have 2 horns that have some "splinters" is the best way to say it, sort of crackled crud that I can't seem to fully get rid of after using a wire brush on a drill. Do you have a better tool or process for scraping out the inside of some horns?

[@tomschout]

When I started scraping out the lines in the horn, and entire layer came of and it looks like the horn is ruined... Does anyone have any idea what I did wrong?

Tandy sells cleaned and polished horns for a reasonable price. I have used them many times. Saves a lot of work. Only problem using bees wax is you can't clean it properly. I use a non traditional method of using food grade epoxy. I have horns I gifted that are over 30 years and still look new. This Man does beautiful work.

The layers will peel back like a hangnail so if that starts to happen sand it out. Everything is repairable, even a hole can be repaired.

Where can I get a horn?

[@thegreatmaskedperchtenlauf319]

The internet or look around your local area/butchery.

I wouldn't use WD40 on something I was going to drink from. Maybe something more natural...
