Well I just got off the phone with the lovely lady at The Rifle Shoppe and ordered the steel version. They were out of the brass. She said they ship on Fridays. Fingers crossed she meant this Friday.

OMG, did you forget to ask her that?
Very handsome gonne, Wulf!
Thanks for the compliment sir,,, but that thing is a plain as an old hound dog.Well I just got off the phone with the lovely lady at The Rifle Shoppe and ordered the steel version. They were out of the brass. She said they ship on Fridays. Fingers crossed she meant this Friday.
Wulf, That thing is too cool! Makes me wanna find a crappy old barrel with a drum on ebay. I really like how you made that.
Well, two "shipping Fridays" have passed since I ordered my gonne from TRS with no sign it is in transit, so they apparently are working to protect their reputation for delay.
Oh what a bummer. That's pathetic. 
Whoa. They charged my card yesterday. Can it be that they shipped today? Have 10 feet of 2mm fuse and a dozen .735 balls cast. (Little kid jumping up and down, trying not to pee himself ... )
)
Better go buy a lottery ticket, I bet today is your lucky day. Here's a tip, when you insert the fuse, turn your gonad (NO, I mean gonne! 
) so the fuse is at 3 o'clock. That makes it easy to light it and it doesn't obstruct your view sighting down the barrel. If you're a southpaw, fuse goes to 9 o'clock.

Selected a piece of wood and cut a half octagon grove. The breech plug I inlayed into the rear flat and folded some
brass straps over the barrel. I drilled a hole at the breech end and screwed in a half of a percussion drum for the pan. Then I formed an
"s" rod to hold the match. I never fired it......sold as soon as finished....
