Window to my Workshop 100

About 18 months ago a friend asked me to make a part for his rifle. An end cap for the hand guard on his Lee Enfield. Since it was getting a bit embarrassing I thought I should get it out the way. It was a good time as I have been distracted by family problems.

 

Never is anything as easy as it first appears. Makes me wonder how the originals were made, especially as this was pre-first world war. I usually make more than one of anything just in case something goes wrong and as you can see I choose to make a pattern in brass.
 
With this out the way I am now back on the No 984. I still have the lever cap area to finish and new pictures will be posted shortly.

 

Happy New Year to all my readers and thank you for all your best wishes received.
