Thank you for the peek into the creation of this gun part. I had no idea that so much time can be invested into the making of one gun. I hope that you will share the completed project with us. This is a beautiful, crisp addition to it.

An apoxy resin called Araldite Rapid, it hardens in about ten minutes and can be softened with a hair drier.
