relic2 19 Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 capping deer antler or a catty with buffalo horn is it easy to do?? cheers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
midnight 657 Posted November 24, 2014 Report Share Posted November 24, 2014 Yep easy enough ! Clean ground surfaces no finer that 120 grit . Degrease with solvent , use very very good apoxi and aply a little presure thought curing . Tape pulled tight is enough . If you put to much presure on it the joint is weak from the apoxi being to thin . You could pin it or grind, cut, drill a little convex pocket on the centre piece of both parts which will fill with a thicker layer of apoxi for a better mechanical bond and remain unseen once the work I'd finished . Good luck !! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
