    Sorry that was unclear Baldy...I am trying to picture the brooch without the tartan...is it a hollowed out antler crown button and then a separate tine?

    Hope this makes more sense! Thx, Lee

    You nailed it, Lee. I used my router to take out the center, and then cleaned it up with a dremel. The cross-tine was just a spike from a whitetail. I am constantly surprised at the hardness of elk antler. It should last a long time.

    Oh go ahead, splurge and buy it already! Leasing is so wishy-washy.



    Sorry. . . I am mostly able to resist but it's late in the day here and that one was just too easy! [/OT]

    Very cool brooch BTW
