Getting horn laminations from gemsbok horn.[Pics added]

BowEd:
Next a showing of the ridges that need to be filed off with a farriers' rasp.

BowEd:
Rasping

BowEd:
More rasping and the results.This took about a half hour.

BowEd:
Rasping done a look at it to see how straight iit is.It's ok to have an up and down bwnd with this but not a side to side bend.So this one had a little side ways bend in it,and your horn is nice and smooth the whole way.

BowEd:
I straighten these as much as possible before ripping them on the band saw.The halfs that come from this can be bent a little yet too but not very good at all after it is flattened and the 3/16" thickness I want.
