Finishing touch c/o Tom Snyder
« on: September 23, 2018, 09:21:50 PM »
Here's some really nice color case hardening, just returned from Tom Snyder.





I'm quite pleased with the results.

I think the case hardening adds more class to the finished product. I like the rifles .

Beautiful work, Jeff.  I just received my lock back from him as well and it surely makes a world of difference in appearance.

What degree of finish does Tom require of a lock to be case hardened? I would like to have the lock for my wife's rile case hardened and have heard great things about Tom's work.
Those rifles you all shared with us look great!

Tom recommends a 400 grit polish on the locks.

His results are excellent and he got them both done quickly.

I highly recommend him if your looking for cool case hardening.
