Never tried working horn for scales so this'll be a first. Got two slabs of honey and two slabs of brown.
Now if my scale making skills were as good as this horn looks, I'd be in business!

I find the horn very easy to work with. It machines easily with standard woodworking tools. Follow a sanding progression into 2K and then some polish and you will be golden. It also finishes up nicely with a buffer if you have one. I often skip the mothers and go with white polish on my buffer. As usual in the high grits of sanding wet is better. Water seems to work fine, I have never tried WD or the likes.
That horn looks nice. Where did you pick it up?

Take a look and see what they've got.
Will do, thanks!
Having seen what you can do with wood, I am looking forward to what you come up with.
Thank you! I just grabbed some honey pieces and some auburn pieces.
