  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

I know there's a tamper thread, but I wanted this to be seen, a couple weeks ago I took a straight deer antler that I turned totally round with a bead at the bottom, then I turned the end down to accept a .45 acp casing and screwed it to the antler. I have a friend that engraves deer, moose, and elk antler. He uses a dental high speed engraver/cutter to do his work. I saw him 2 weeks ago and gave it to him and told him to do what ever he wanted to do with it. We met at a historical show this afternoon and I got my new tamper, this guys amazing. He does not draw things out first, he just engraves what's in his head......oh and no, he doesn't take orders, this is his "hobby"

Id love to be able to do something like that. Except mine would have dogs instead of owls. Or squirrels.
This is awesome.
Send my praises to your friend! May he keep up that good work!
