How to make a deer antler begleri on a woodturning lathe

 

























Tools and materials I propose:

Lathe

Wood turning tools set

Chuck kit

Buffing kit

Micro mesh sanding pads

Bandsaw

Deer antler dog chews


In this video I make a begleri using deer antler. This is a classic anti-stress accessory used in Greek and other eastern mediterranean cultures. You can find deer antler in a pet shop as a dog chew.


I begun by cutting the horn on the bandsaw. I drilled a pilot hole for my screw chuck. 


I then started turning it. Scrapers worked really nicely on this material. 


I sanded from 100 to 1000 and then I polished it with micro mesh pads. 


The material is pretty hard and can achieve a pretty cool shine. Especially the exterior of the bone. The core has pores which give the piece a really cool texture.


My little begleri was now ready. But that was it. See you soon with a new project video.
