Iām a finger twitch away from ordering a pair from Aus, Azurahorn.
Anyone tried a pair?
Iām talking myself in to someone else faffingš
Life is short, money is not an issue, Iām building other things at the moment.
Yes, they are the ones in my system. They donāt have the full round over.
Thought they looked the same.
Guess thatās cosā they are GRP? and you canāt release a full wrap around from a mold.
Hmm.
The tractrix I have (turned myself) have pretty full wrap around.
The throat of tractrix and Le C is very, very, similar. Itās the wider flare where things differ.
Ritchie, can you compare the sound of your Tractrix to the Le C a bit more?
Itās a while since I swapped over! I think the LeCleach are less coloured maybe, or at least a different colour. They just disappeared a bit more in comparison. If you click your tongue on the roof of your mouth and make a hollow tok sound, the tractrix by comparison had a hint of that character to my ear. Obviously, I only noticed it after I swapped them, I wasnt looking to change. The tractrix havenāt been back in sinceā¦
If I get time over the weekend, Iāll swap them back in and give you my impressions.

Can you not turn some up on the lathe?
Would do in a flash but can only swing 9".
To swing more than 12" needs a massive or specialist lathe.
I was thinking to extend the drive beyond the bed, but to accurately turn wood would take a stable platform.
Would be easier to convert my big end sander. Mount it and somehow a tool rest on my table saw bedā¦
That spins a bit fast so would need to get the piece pretty well balanced beforehand.
Iām thinking through the latter.

Serious but of kit that.

Yes, remember looking at those pics many moons ago.
The angle grinder idea is great for making a plug. To do the inner turning requires a more proper adjustable tool rest and wood lathe rpm.

Can stay over while your horns are made.
