Sequatchie's rifle has a hinged toe plate with cavities for a ball puller, jag, and scraper. I have been planning to make a hinged toe plate for a long time. It took a couple versions to get one that I was happy with. I seen one on a Bean rifle years back, and it put the thought of making one in my mind. I also made a vent pick that screws into the stock between the toe plate and the rear final of the trigger guard. The profile of the curve of the butt plate on my rifle came from a William Douglas rifle. It is similar to the Lawing butts I have seen. I also had to make the butt plate twice to get the look and feel that Sequatchie and I were looking for.
