Thanks Rick, there is a world of epoxy out there with lots of creative usage. I've been carrying the idea of a black spotted antler knife but I've wanted to solve it in a more "natural" waybthan tainted epoxy. It is tempting though... the long drill I'm using I believe is from the world of medical treatment. I think it's specifically for bone.

@@VahidCullsberg Good morning from Kentucky, U.S.A., my brother. I lean in the same direction as you. Man-made glues and such are very useful, but I rather like "natural things". I use deer dung , charcoal and pine tar to make natural glue when it is appropriate. I also use hide glue when I can. I like using natural gut and sinew for wrappings along with rawhide. I have used different colored soil mixed with hide glue to paint designs on indigenous American reproductions. I have also used walnut hulls to make a good dark stain. I I use an ancient stain called vinegaroon that uses vinegar, rust and sometimes coffee. It seems to work well on wood and bone. I haven't tried it on antler. It works better warm on surfaces that are not too polished. I wonder how a scrimshaw technique with shallow drill divots instead of carved lines would work? I think the stain would take in better in the drill divots than on polished surface and then wipe off excess. I am just thinking out loud. I will try this on a piece of scrap antler. May we offer our lives as a spiritual Bethlehem and pray that our LORD would birth fresh things from above in us this year. Yours in Prayer, Pastor Rick Trumbo.

🤣🤣 for those late night shifts. Thanks John.
