Title: Antler
Post by: Lone500 on January 30, 2012, 12:08:25 pm

Figured this would probably be the most appropriate place to post this. ive had these laying around in the house for years. Never worked with antler before so im not sure what exactly to do with it. im sure people around here can give me some ideas  :-X

Yes. There is a pithy center but near the tips the antler is more solid.
