Reindeer antlers
« on: April 27, 2014, 05:27:05 PM »
A very nice guy I have had the pleasure of meeting gave me a tub full of reindeer sheds he collected up in Alaska... Made my first cribbage board out of one of the pieces. :)









I repaid my debt with the cribbage board and a shedding trip in Central WA... where he found me more horns to make things out of.  :chuckle:



Hope everyone's spring is treating you well!

That's what I hear... Better safe than sorry!

Thanks for the kind words... had a great time making it.

4 days total labor... (about 18 hours total of dremmel, wood working, and paint work) plus waiting for the metal cribbage pieces to arrive. :)
