36 Caliber Southern Rifle
Mike Yancey:
Made the patchbox lid today
Mike Yancey:
Fit and pinned the ramrod tip.
Mike Yancey:
Did a little shaping on the cheek piece yesterday
Mike Yancey:
Today I drilled and installed the touch hole liner. This picture shows the small cut in the face of the breech plug that the drill bit cuts as it drills the hole. You then remove the breech plug and polish this so powder falls in there easily when you load the rifle.
Mike Yancey:
Also cut the dovetail and installed the rear and front sights.
