Title: Single Loop
Post by: BrushyCreekDouglas on July 05, 2024, 08:35:13 PM
I made this single loop off my JS Collins pattern. Generally speaking I'm not a fan of single loops, but this look has grown on me.

I like it.  Nice shape, good eye appeal and very simple tooling.  Only thing missing for me, is the muzzle plug.

Thank ya Buck, means a lot coming from someone of your caliber. I've attempted muzzle plugs twice now with less than ideal results, still working on that skill.

The plugs are an involved process, in order to do it correctly.  But, once you get it figured out, it's very easy.  Wish I could explain it to you, but a verbal explanation would only be confusing.  Watching me do it, is the ONLY way to learn, other than trial and error.

Perhaps a video of you doing one...  ;)

So true.
