    Absolutely right. Not only are there personal preferences but no two repairs are exactly the same. What works best for one repair may not work best for another.

    Here are a couple of links to repairs I've done on horn. Thought I'd never find them even with an advanced search. Man there's a lot packed into that thread!

    That last one is pretty drawn out and goes on for a few pages.

    I agree with Tom, on glueing two pieces of horn. If u have the broken piece. But when fabrication of a missing piece, I have no issues with the epoxy. Strong, permanent, can dye it, and it's not brittle. But to each their own...they've all worked

    I must add that no oils of any kind before repairs. Dry stuff is a must!
