elverno Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Nice trial strike! I'm always amazed that what was supposed to be a quick visual check not only got out of the workshop but survived in such great shape in a soft metal like lead.

This one in lead 55mm by Bain of James Watt is not even listed in BHM and I can find no reference to it anywhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
