A little 20g to 90g wood, copper and steel primitive powder measure I put together. Based off of a photo from a fellow ALR member a few months back. Nothing fancy, I tried to capture a folksy back woods aura.

Definitely folksy. The thumb screw is what captures my attention.

Here’s one of David’s from a few years ago. He’s a master!
Yes, it’s a swamped barrel powder measure.

One of the things I regret NOT buying when they were available! IIRC he made some octagon to round Spanish patterns as well
