Side-opening Wood Patchbox?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Greg Field:
Wow. Thanks. That kind of what I'm thinking, except I was going to shape the wood part of the lid to be more domed, like the sliding wood lids.

Ohioan:
Thanks Stonefeather.

Greg, I don't think it would be hard to create a dome shape on that.  But,  in my mind, it looks clunky.

Evil Monkey:
Isn't that really a brass patch box with a wood inlay rather than a wood patch box??

David Rase:
Greg,  The silver and gold trimmed fantasy rifle that Jud Brennan made for Gordan Barlow in 1997 has a side hinged wooden patchbox.  That rifle is featured in the Contemporary Kentucky Rifles volume 1 video by American Pioneer Video and also in Muzzleloader Magazine in the July/August1998 issue.

David:

Thank-you. I'll try to find some visuals from those sources.
