I for one sure enjoy following your builds!
 
Yep me too. I'm sure it's a ton of work taking pics, posting, and answering questions. But it sure has been extremely helpful to me for sure. Probably tons of others as well. Sure is nice being able to ask a pro a question and get a helpful answer.
Ah ok cool !! Thanks bud , As long as you TDM and Walt keep liking them I'll continue posting my builds . I aint tryin to be uhmmm .... attention gettin or anything like that just sometimes feels goofy posting if there ain't no body checking out the thread . No biggy , just curious . I ain't no pro but I sure love my trade guns :)

That would be sad! I enjoy all of your builds as I am waiting for you to start mine!
 
I for one sure enjoy following your builds!
Count me in too!

As a person with no woodworking or metalwork skills I enjoy following your progress and I am really learning from you.
I am almost inspired to try it myself, I remember the thread with you helping TDM and looks almost doable for me.
Plus Every one I see you build makes me know your one more closer to mine!

Yeah , I just drew the rings on with a marker then followed the mark with my three corner file , one side ground smooth . If the ring / line starts to vear off you flip the file so you have a cutting side , to the side it needs to go to , and the smooth side the other ....it goes back to good and straight you flip the file to both cutting sides down again .... and go slow ...

Please continue with the builds. Waiting with baited breath for more builds from you. You have helped many aspiring as well as accomplished gun builders on this forum.
 
....and browning ...and browning ....and browning ... and browning ... Its starting to get a little texture on it .....finally . It takes a bit , especially in the winter time . The trigger guard is done , just soaking in oil now . The browning is hard to get started BUT ....once it starts , it can be s b!+@# to get it to quit . I found that out the hard way when folks talked me into trying the cold Browning solutions. SHEEW !!! Its tough to get it to stop ! Back to Birchwood Casey , the old standard ! Hopefully be shooting it in 2-4 days ! We'll see ! Never can tell till its done ...
