I didnt say the horn would be in the way...  I said the ANVIL is in the 
way...  for me...
The way I turn scrolls I would have to reach over the anvil to roll the scroll.
Ive used others anvils that are pointed left and the anvil just seems to 
have a way of being right where I want to stand..
With it pointed to the right its not in the way.

The other reason is that any hardie tools... Particularly cut offs are away 
from your hammer hand..

Not that any one way is right or wrong, I guess its like having the toilet 
paper come over the top or under the roll
its just a matter of choice...  I choose right...and over... ;^)
