I was horrified when I saw that their old standard shop aprons had been discontinued. I have a pile that my late mother patched that have never seen bleach, but are bone white from going through the...

You can get Jerrows Inletting Black

I can relate. My Honda HR194 rotary mower I bought ~1986 starts on about the first eight inches of pull every time. My neighbor borrowed it Sunday and ask me if I had it enumerated in my will. I...

Jerrow’s inletting black. I’ve got a Gunsmoke carbide lamp I use for really fine jobs too. It’s harder to buy carbide than it used to be. Either one generally leaves me looking like a mammy singer...

Doesn't Steve Earl make cutters for Dem Bart tools?

I form 17 HH from Privi brass no problem. I also form 219 DW, that one can be a PITA. I also form 17 & 20 Garin from 30 Carbine and that makes the DW look like child’s play.

I’ve got a...

I’m getting closer. I bought a used Wilton Pow R Arm 301. I’ve got a 18 inch steel block off plate for water main that I was going to make a hanging target out of, but now I think I will use it as...

I can state unequivocally that Boggs file sharpening service is one of the best things going that few people know about. If they paint it red on the tang they don’t want to see it again, don’t...

I only use the best hack saw blades, usually Starrett and use high tension frames. I think they are Bahco.

I have a Harbor Freight about six blocks from my home and don’t buy much there. Zip...

A half dozen of mine were given to me by my mother and grandfather. If they have lost anything since new it surely wasn't apparent.

I don't believe so, and the German ones weren't what they had been advertised to be. It was Japanese that stand out.

That’s not quite accurate about Nicholson files, I was on the phone with Boggs and telling them that I had just bought a 10” Grobet fine cut mill file and it was a total piece of junk. They said...

Dennis Olsen, Plains Mt it will come right up. Phone is dead and can’t find charging cable. Kids, uggh.

Impressed me as doing quite well, he has been in really good cheer when we've talked recently. I haven't seen him in over a year, it used to be easy for me to swing in when the kids and I were...

I was chatting with Dennis Olsen and mentioned that someone had posted they were looking for a 50 cal 1:36 barrel. He said he was pretty sure he has a 50 cal 1:28 Octagon that came from C Sharps and...

I’ve got a pretty decent selection of counterbores, don’t have any this large diameter. I had this shaft that was part of a $50 grab bag I bought to get a 541 trigger and I put it to good use.

De Haas’ book Mr Single Shot’s Gunsmithing Idea Book goes into detail on the Martini actions. It covers the various methods.

I have an old Forster case trimmer cutter shaft and already had a bunch of neck turn pilots. It has come in handy for putting pillars in stocks. I can usually come up with a pilot that fits the...

I would be inclined to have Lee make a custom Collett die and seat the bullets with a Vickerman.

25-20 SS cases can be made by pressing 223 up into the neck of a 7mm die with an arbor press and a punch then turning the case ahead of the rim. There is a bit more to it, but I've only seen it...

I ran out of space to post photos here, so have been posting about my Stevens 44 project here

I bought wood from CPA. It’s just wrapping up. All I need to do is finish my foreend hangers and get...

I’ve got a Teslong flexible one. It’s OK for my purposes. Will get a rigid one, the flex one is a PITA because it wants to turn away from what I am trying to look at. They are inexpensive enough...

My inclination is that some gun scribe dissed on the 58 shortly after it came out and then others followed their lead. I think my experience with my grandfather’s 58 and a few other firearms that...

What a guy. I’ll try and give you a call this week.
