Wooden and Glass Lantern with Lantern Hook
This lantern is not very heavy and is easy to use. It's made to accept the one inch diameter survival type candles which
last about six to eight hours. The lantern sells for $30.00 plus shipping and handling.
The Lantern Hook is very versatile.
As you can see it supports this candle lantern very well and will adjust to any height on the pole simply by sliding it up
or down the pole. It is held in place by friction/gravity. You can also use it to hang other objects up off the ground such
as powder horns, possibles bags, coats, hats, etc.This Lantern Hook was designed to fit over a 11/2 inch diameter dowel rod,
and the dowel can be stood erect by using the Pole Stand that I make as shown at the bottom of this page The hooks sell
for $5.00 each plus shipping and handling.

Horn Cups
The cups or mugs shown above are made from cow horn with a wooden plug pinned in the bottom. Skrimshaw work is done on the
outside before the entire piece is sealed with a non toxic sealer to prevent leaks. They will hold hot or cold beverages and
they do last a long time. The one on the right is mine and I made it about ten years ago and still drink coffee from it today.
I haven't tried washing them in the dishwasher so I can't recommend it, but hand washing works. If you have any specific ideas
for skrimshaw work on the outside of your mug, let me know. Otherwise none will be put on it. Each mug sells for $20.00 each
plus shipping and handling

Open Lantern
This is where the door to the lantern is. It opens easily for access to light, put out, or change the candle.
Shown above is a new creation of mine. It is simply a Pole Stand. You see out here in west Texas there aren't as many trees
as some of you folks have. So I decided to make a stand that can be driven into the ground just about anywhere you might need
it.This Pole Stand sells for $15.00 plus shipping and handling.

Spork
Yes, that's what I call it. These fast food places don't have anything on us mountainmen. I came up with this idea a few years
back after I got tired of looking for my eating utensils. I figured this way there was only one piece to keep up with instead
of several. What do you think? A spoon on one end and a fork on the other. These sell for $5.00 plus shipping and handling.
This is a Wolf Track pendant I made from cow horn.
