What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

[11th corps]

Refinishing my Track of the Wolf components poor boy flintlock.
Wasn't happy with the shape of the fore stock and the finish on the rifle. It's a .40 caliber.

Got my war shirt all sewn up. Next is cutting the fringe. I also put a welt in every seam. I got a tall order in at crazy crow for some black red and white pigment leather paints, horse hair scalp locks, elk teeth, red padre beads, and a rosette all to decorate this shirt with… Oh and a real whitetail deer tail to sew on the back.

It’s your shirt but I’d keep it plain with the fringe, get some age and weather on it and it would look great. Just my two cents.

cleaned out a closet that was full of boxes, dead laptops, and sundry other junk.
moved all my leaning in the corner of the bedroom long guns into the closet.

What no wasp nest .

When the weather warms up I will cast some .600 rbs and then use my wasp nesting to shoot bare rbs.

Nothing at all. However, I am sitting among my displays trying to decide which gun to give away next. Fun to find newbies and get 'em started.

Hey Dale, I am not there yet, I got a few more years before I start thinning out my collection. But I understand what you are doing and I think it is cool!

Thanks Yeah I might make a plain one in the future but I've got other plans for this one.

Tried my hand at forging today. Took a class in Lebanon, PA. Nothing was created that really related to our time period here, but I learned a lot.
Hope to do it again and get some more knowledge. It certainly made me appreciate fine craftsmanship more, though I don't know that forging is my skill set.

That looks a bit like a beheading axe at the Tower of London
