GOB,

It is good to hear from you! I fit my wooden base plugs in my shop. I trace the butt end of the horn on the wood, cut it out and then rasp it to a snug fit. I then glue the plug in place. I have some veneer grade cedar that has a nice red color for the plug. On the tip, I use a fine hacksaw to remove a small piece and then fit a wooden plug with a rawhide tether.

I will try to get my son to do the pictures.

Adam
