Good point Arjan. I agree on the curves into the horn.

Oh yeah, I have found that when I work on ivory, horn, or sometimes even bone, there can be a definite, how could I say it..........aromatic stench!

Goes right through a mask too.

Bad memories of anatomy dissection lab...sawing through the cranium the saw got hot from the friction and it smelled like Doritotos....don't ask me why but that is what I remember...

At work, whenever I have to ring a hospital Morgue I seem to ring when they are performing a PM and can hear that awful sound in the background!!

Thanks for adding the thought of the 'scent' to it for me

Don't think I'll ever be touching a Dorito again............
