Thanks Brian, how is your engraving going?

Pukka, thanks for the photo, it looks nice. This is the engraving that I tried to copy. Sorry but I don’t know who did this work…maybe someone knows.

Boss sure does build some fine guns.

Richard, very nice - and precise!  Some good line width variation as well.

Richard, I'm tapping away on some brass practice plates every day. I did add a picture of the side plate to my colonial rifle post. A very basic design, but did add curves as you suggested.
