I have been communication with Barbie about ordering more locks and parts from Jim Chambers.  In discussing the new projects with a friend, he  asked if I had pictures of the process of building a copy of one of Jim's beautiful rifles.  I had sent him the link to this thread about the time of the whole dust up with PhotoBucket.  He just sent me a note telling me there were no pictures !  So I took the time to replace all the old PhotoBucket links......Again, my apologies for resurrecting old news.....

I am glad you reposted the pictures Dave. It is such a loss when searching for something only to find the pictures gone. Being fairly new at this site I spend a lot of time searching and reading. It is such a great resource.

Dave,
Again a fantastic job and a goal for all of us to shoot for, the trip will be fun no matter how ours turn out. You are a true artist and craftsman i will put up against any. Also, like you say, after the Photobucket mess, this site has lost so many good photos on so many articles it is truly a shame. That was Great of you to take the time to repost your photos anew!
We all thank you. I'll get in touch with you sometime son and discuss the Acraglass procedures for beefing up the breech area for us that are still working on our inletting skills. Thanks again!

Thank you for your time redoing all the photos.  It's not just here, it's on all forums of all types that lost great info because of how photo sharing is kinda being held hostage.  You do great work that everyone can learn from and aspire to be able to do.

Thank you for the kind comments.  I use the "Search" feature of this site quite a bit and used to be frustrated when the photos of some posts were no longer in the thread because the original poster had moved them or....whatever?  Now it is really frustrating as most of the photos are gone.  So, little at a time, I am replacing as many of my own photos as I can get to.  I'm glad they are of some use to others as well.
