    Patch Knife?

    Thank you all for your time, help, and replies to this question. I will be starting my endevour on Monday. I will take whatever angle it is and put a 20 on it. That is kind of what I was thinking anyways, so I did have some idea.... Anyways, stay tuned and I will update it as I go along.

    Patch Knife?

    Yes, I was actually thinking of a block of sorts with a groove for it to slip into and hold in place with rivets. Yes, I planned on drilling holes to secure it. Thank you.

    Patch Knife?

    Hi all again. So, I was just wondering what makes a patch knife. I do not plan on doing any re-enactments, or such. I just want a little patch knife. Anyways, I have this knife that broke, and was wondering if I could turn this into a patch knife? And if so, does anyone have any tips to do so. I...

    Patch Material Question

    Thanks again. Looks like I will be buying a LOT of patch material. It is very hard here to find pillow ticking, hence why I bought some sort of other stuff while looking. When I come down to the US for holidays this spring, I will hunt some down and buy a bit of it while there. Thanks again for...

    Patch Material Question

    Thank you again. Flannel would be the word I was looking for earlier. No longer worried. It is all cut up and bagged for cleaning patches now. Thank you all for the help again.

    Patch Material Question

    Ok, thank you all for your time, opinions, and help. Yes it is soft and very pliable/flexible. As for wear, it does not have that much, maybe 3 times I just hooked them and they ripped good. I just hated to think about throwing something usable out. But, I will be making a bunch of cleaning...

    JB Bore Paste Substitute

    Of course you may ask, and I'd be glad to answer. To summarize what was just posted in my reply above, the gun has some good rust/pitting along the length of the barrel, and mainly along the corners of the lands and grooves. I was thinking it would help clean it up, but I am reading to shoot it...

    JB Bore Paste Substitute

    Zero, zip, zilch, nada! Sorry for the stupid reply, but I have not ever shot the gun. I had acquired this rifle from a neighbour at the lake this past fall on the weekend we were closing up the cottage. He used to shoot it yearly to take a deer or two, but how long ago, that is my best guess, as...

    JB Bore Paste Substitute

    Hi all. So after reading another topic here and seeing the results of using JB Bore Paste on their rifle, I had decided to look it up. Well, as per usual, it is not available around here in Canada, or at least around me. So, I was just wondering if there is anything else you would recommend to...

    Maxi ball and Lee REAL lube

    Another great topic that saved me from starting another. This is important to me as I cast and am going to try out both the Maxi Ball and Lee R.E.A.L. bullets in my 50 calibre Traditions Deerhunter Flintlock. This is also another main reason I was wanting to, and since have, made a Moose Snot...
