Hawken buttplate forged and brazed
« on: June 27, 2017, 01:41:55 AM »
Forged and brazed and rough filed the buttplate for my project this evening. Those who have placed a request for one I plan on trying to get them done over the long weekend. This is how those who ordered will receive theirs, filed and cleaned up but not polished.

That's very impressive.
When a nation forgets her skill in war, when her religion becomes a mockery, when the whole nation becomes a nation of money-grabbers, then the wild tribes, the barbarians drive in... Who will our invaders be? From whence will they come?
