Your photos and drawings are terriffic, you are very skilled, AND you are very generous with your time. You are a teacher, my friend. You know the language of tools and machinery. English? Not so much.

But the drawing speaks all languages!

I just died from amazement.

Acer Saccharum · « **Reply #62 on:** June 26, 2013, 03:51:01 PM »

I understand breechloading, yes. Snap match, yes. Wheel lock, yes.

Self-span, no, I do not understand yet. I can wait until you have made the parts.

Self spanning... when you actuate the wheelock cock it both resets the lid of the pan and causes the wheel to wind... at least that is what I understand from the discussion on facebook.

Self spanning = cock is the key

Screw slots look too modern. The rest looks antique, made in another century, in a different world.
