| Hi folks,
I have given this some thought. Stainless steel is very hard, so it's easy going over an area "again" to orient the grain (scratches) properly. But, because brass on a horn is so much softer and thinner...you need to get it right the first time, or "wala"... a new lamp.
The Dremel Tool idea is interesting. Coincidentally, my wife just got me one for my birthday. Now I have new ideas. :wink:
Most scratch finish horns I have seen, so far, have the grain running perpendicular to the linear tubing (around the tubing). If I find a cheap horn with terrible lacquer, I will try this and report back.
All the best. |
