I cant pm you back gaffer, inbox full?? I used a drill with a 42mm auger bit to bore the hole about 10 mm deep, put in the badge then poured in clear casting resin, the pewter badge is set in a clear glass window and sanded to the original shape of the antler so you cant feel any difference if you rub your finger from over the clear part onto the antler, basically replacing any antler i took out with clear resin, then polished to make it transparent. Looks the job because its an actual pewter pin badge and not just a picture.

      Hey guys feeling pretty proud of this little project,as it's something I've never really done.
      I was after a nice stick for walking the pooch,sourced some seasoned hazel of a friend some antler for the handle and hardwood for a spacer/reducer. I used linseed oil on the stick which I'm happy with.
      My question is what would be best to use on the antler crown? Some sort of resin? I've seem some that have a blacked out crown polished up like glass,what is that?
      Any help would be appreciated.
      Many thanks
      Pete.
