A Horny issue

[Zeddedhed]

On visiting the Bently Woodfair at the weekend my 10 year old son has purchased a cow horn which he wants to use asa a drinking horn.
Does anyone know what i can use to coat the inside to make it hygienically clean and obviously something that is food/drink safe.
I'm going to coat the outside in West Systems 105 Epoxy resin to strengthen it up a bit as it's a bit thin in places but I need something food safe for the inside.
Any help gratefully received and feel free to let rip with your full repertoire of horn jokes (fnaarr fnaar)

My shaving bowl is Buffalo horn. That isn't finished at all. Just worked to a smooth state. I don't see why I couldn't eat porridge from it, and I would, if I could still eat porridge. Wouldn't epoxy coated on the inside work too Zedd?

Quite a simple proceedure, if you have the odd week or so to fart around :shock: :shock:

Or you could spend the week learning to turn and turn yer own. Not quite a horn shape, but really nice to drink from. The right hand job is a Selangore pewter (Malay) job and the left is maple and teak turned for a comssion a long while back, but usable



And it stands up on its own :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
