Yes I forgot about that, all my mates used to make cowhorns in metal work for their bikes, the teacher used to get well miffed, as the amount of design and manufacture was not quite what he was looking for, think he was expecting more than just self gratification skills to be honed to a fine art by teenagers, adults eh, they ain't got a clue!
