Cooking hornstone?
« on: June 27, 2011, 10:56:55 am »
A friend sent me some rock and she called it hornstone.  Should this be or can this be cooked and if so at what temp?

Work horn stone raw, if you cook it it will be ruined.

I agree with that. If it truly is hornstone then it works great raw.
When you come upon a track or trail you do not know, follow it to the point of knowing.
