Title: snaphaunce blunderbuss
Post by: Adrie luke on September 28, 2025, 02:59:43 PM
Hello,

I finally found another beautiful walnut plank.
I started by making a blunderbuss.
Walnut isn't easy to work with; there are chunks that splinter easily,
so be careful.

Adrie,
How long is that lock from end to end? Your work is so good that sometimes I forget that you are making miniatures!
