I just remembered that ROy Rogers stuffer Trigger when he died, so stuffing a real horse would not be illegal, so long as it dies of natural causes. And the coloration of the tusk can be easily manipulated, I think...........
Thanks Rolls - you may have just saved my marriage. I had Long-Suffering-Wife read this thread, with the desired result. She said, "Oh my God, I'm sorry I picked on you. Just don't do anything like that!" My undying appreciation to you! :thanks
And Arthurian legend, of course, is not the ultimate authority on Unicorns. So, really, there's no "breaking" of anything... Of course, we all know that only SPECIAL people could actually touch a unicorn...Rolls? Anything you want to shavre with the group? It's ok...we won't laugh. Much.
Rolls, thank you for this post. I can honestly say that you have made even my most outlandish fits of fancy appear mundane. Even my offer of $100.00 for a tub of Coates Rose and what I paid for some of my hones pale next to this!!! Thank you and God bless you for this endeavor. :bounce
What an amazing price break! You do realize it is hollow right? http://www.boonetrading.com/Narwhal.html
The tusk I have coming received minor damage sometime in the last century, and the seller has had it put away for a few years. I offered to buy it, for a discounted price of course!! He did mention that they are hollow, but that this one is from an old whale. I guess that means the hollow section is smaller maybe? He also said that because of its age, the tusk is considerably darker than those on the site, but that they can be treated and/or bleached. I now need to find a way to give it an irridecent sheen.
Wow, you really are crazy! According to legend the Narwhal brush will nullify any poisonous shave cream you may encounter.
Wow...Now I don't feel bad for spending my $200 for shaving stuff...Rolls' thank you for clearing my guilt. I owe you big-time!
Update.... For some reason I learned the other day that it will take another couple weeks for me to actually get my damn tusk. So, stand by. As soon as I get the tusk, and have Jason make the brush, I will also have him take some pictures for me.
Still no tusks. If this turns out to be anything like the IM buy acrossed the street, I will not be pleased............
Jason just called me a little bit ago. Said there is a FedEx package over the other house. Said it looks like something a pool stick would come in......................
so funny* that I was going to ask about this yesterday but forgot EDIT: not ha-ha funny, coincidental funny
When it's done, send it to me, Rolls. I'll take pictures and test it out for you. Make sure it's still good...
