unixronin: Galen the technomage, from Babylon 5: Crusade (Default)

An odd question in this day and age anyway, perhaps.

I have -- or had -- a horn... no, not on my head or on my car, I'm talking about one of those things that sticks out the side of a steer's head.  B-flat trombone mouthpiece in it, blow the horn to signal ... well, lately most often to signal "Supper's ready", actually.

Anyway, Wednesday night, I broke it.  A deep chip out of the edge that I could have dealt with by just trimming it back, except that I also cracked it down one side for slightly more than half its length.  It needs replacement.

The question, probably largely directed at any of my SCAdian readers, is this:  How in blazes am I going to find a replacement?

(It doesn't necessarily have to be a cow's horn.  A ram's horn, for instance, would probably work just as well, possibly better.  And no, I don't remember where I got the first one.  I think I've had it about fifteen years.)
