The NMLRA was fortunate to host Honourable Company of Horners member Henry Bowman as he instructed a Basic Powder Horn construction class at the NMLRA Education Center. Below we’ll be sharing photos taken by Henry in addition to his writing.
Each of the 6 students with their finished horns
We had a great time at the NMLRA (National Muzzle Loading Rifle Association) for BASIC POWDERHORN class.
I was blessed with six great students, most of whom had never made a powderhorn before.
Henry brought along some of his personal horn and book collection for students to study and get inspiration from. These resources can be invaluable to students unfamiliar with the skills or project being worked on.
