Fred, you are doing great work! I've been "lurking" on this thread, and have gotten a ton of good Bucks County info from you all! Spinner was nice enough to send me that PB drawing also.
I kinda like the silver finial on the PB - looks nice! Was it sterling, or pure silver? I like both, but the silver tends to be easier for me to work than the sterling.
Building a Rupp rifle right now, and tried to anneal one of my old English coins - over-heated a bit, and got some nifty burn marks in my floor! I do have an annealing block to heat stuff on, and do not know why I didn't use it!
Thanks for all the info, guys - it is appreciated!
