    Whitetail antlers also make really cool pens. You just cut them to length, chuck them up on the lathe and turn them to size and give them about 5 really heavy coats of varnish. If I ever get back home, I will snap a few photos of some I have made and post them.

    You can work them with just standard woodworking tools. They do stink like hell, but they come out looking really nice.
