Don't feel bad pete, I have a 25" monitor and went off screen even with res set at 1900 and above.

Fnuser, if your running windows XP, than down load this power toy for XP to re size your pictures down to a realistic value. microsoft-powertoys-im...tonic.com/

If you run win 7, you can use the default image software that comes with it or download a free open source full suite called GIMP. It will re size, scale, wash the dishes and other things.

Anyone ever work with horn? I think I want to make a horn tip and grip cap. Or maybe just a triangle in the front of the grip cap like the old "95 Winchester.

ahhhh

.... oh

I see what you mean now Embarassed

we did a little of that at high school way back in nineteen hundred and nuts n bolts.... if I remember rightly it worked fine with an angle grinder but the smell is quite different. the same with deer antler, try it and you will chuckle when you see what I mean Very Happy

. I believe expoxy glue does the job of keeping it in place.
good luck look forward to seeing results.

Yeah, I see what you mean Elvis, I roughed out a piece on the belt sander for the muzzle, and it was like singed hair. Kinda reminded me of some family cookouts. It shapes real easy with hand tools too. I messed with it a lot. really trying to spot it in. leaving no gaps. What about the grain? Do you think I should be concerned? I tried to keep the rings concentric to the bore. I think I succeeded without any runout but not sure it was worth the sanity I lost in the process.
