This is one of my best...  The barrel is Hippo tooth Ivory, and is followed with one of my hand cut o-ring fitted Hippo Ivory toneboards.  Both pieces are carrying my CA finish inside and out, buffed and polished to a very high gloss.  It is signed (I put my real name in the Ivory calls) and dated inside the barrel under the finish.  If it doesn't sound as good as it looks I'll buy it back.   :wink:  I'm asking $250 TYD

The top section of a Hippo tooth on my bandsaw.. these things are blade killers actually throw sparks! lol

I cut a couple slight indentions and follow the grooves all the way around with an India Ink pen.

Looks good Brad as usual.
The picture with the rifle in it is throwing me off. I dont think I've seen it so white in any pics before. So now I'm wondering what color the stuff is for real.
In fact I just got up and went to look at mine for comparison.
:doh2: Duh...mines burl and antler :laf:

Absolutely beautiful work once again Brad.  :highclap: :highclap:

Thank you guys!  LOL it does look a little to white in that pic Jim!  Not sure what happened there!  The other pics give a better idea of it.   :wink:
