๐ช๐ฝAnd being vegan, I quietly asked if any deers had died for this, but NO, thank f**k!๐๐๐๐ผ

Pieces were cut, we picked a piece to start working on & just got on with it!
Filing down the inside of the antler was tough work but we did i!๐ช๐ฝ
Feel like Iโve had a 2-hour bicep workout!!๐คฃ๐คฃ๐ช๐ฝ
Next week will be smoothing the outer part and smoothing/rounding itโฆ
