    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    I installed my new Parrot Vise and TS Steelworks Ball Base on a bench that sits in the middle of my shop today. I lined the jaws with leather. This will be used for carving and engraving. I can tilt and rotate the vise any which way I like and move around the stock.
