I think that I remember that atone time were you doing leather work & using a stitching Pony in Morganton, NC. I bought one last year to use in my leather projects! 'Blessings on you & yours!
Howdy: I started making powder horns in the 70's. I've vented (drilled out through the side) a few, but not too many thankfully. It happens! Anyway, as to shortcuts or helpful hints? FWIW, I buy rubber O rings from a plumbing supply store in different diameters. You "roll" one of them down the tip to where you want to cut/mark, etc. and you can draw a perfect ring around the horn with a pencil or marker. Just carefully run the marker along both sides of the O ring. Works every time. I hope that helps some newbies? Nice work, great video. Thanks. God bless: Two Feathers Proprietor of...

Clint, this is the preacher from Alabama who portrays the Rev. Samuel Doak during OVTA's annual re-enactment of the March to King's Mountain. Your Dad & I were good friends & he worked on several of my flintlocks in years past. I actually met you several times in Morgantown, NC. My older son is also named Clint. I'm happy to learn of your UA-cam Channel & I have just subscribed. I know that you miss your Dad. I lost both my parents last year within 8 months of one another; so my thoughts & prayers are offered on behalf of you & your family. Your Dad & I were close to the same age; I turned 83 my lats birthday. I look forward to learning from you as I watch your presentations. Thanks a million; & may God bless you & yours. G. Cobb (aka Samuel Doak) By the way, we have not been on the March since Covid & we were taking care of my parents until their passing. 'Hope to see you this Fall in Morganton or along the Trail!
So good to hear from you. Hopefully we’ll see you this fall. I’m hoping to have some new videos posted soon, so thank you for subscribing and following along.
I've followed your horn making for a while and enjoy your work. I've made several over the years and have made every possible mistake there is but I really enjoy making them, not to your level of talent but I hope to get there some day. Thanks for the video I'm always looking for tips to improve my horn making.
I usually buy horns at events where I can pick them. The Annual HCH meeting, Kempton’s Gunmakers Fair, and CLA show are all great places near me. If you are looking to order online, I recommend Powder Horns and More. Hope that helps.
You can purchase online at www.powderhornsandmore.com or purchase in person at events like the Honourable Company of Horner Annual Horn Fair/Meeting or the Gunmaker’s Fair at Kempton

Like that shot bag as a work surface to keep the horn steady.
