Really nice work. Now can we have a step by step video on how you did it? :wink:
Thanks bioprof
It sparks really well! Only problem is the sparks tend to fly upwards and sometimes don't ignite the pan powder. It's pretty relaible though, I wouldn't want to have someone point it at me and squeese the trigger!

Sorry Hawkchucker
I don't have a vidio camera and dont know how to use one anyway! I'm still learning how to use a computer! If the kids didn't own a computer store I probably wouldn't have one. The instructions for doing this computer stuff are written on a big piece of paper stuck on the refrigerator and help is just a phone call away!
Sorry I got off topic.
Any way it wont be in the near future.

Ha Same here. but no that is really great work! I allways am amazed at how people turn out these incredible pieces of art. But one thing that allways bugged me. Where do people find the time?
Back on topic. Do you find that the matchlock when the wheel engages the pyrite throw your shot off? It seems that the force inside of the lock really does not make them tack drivers.

Hi Wulf
YES it it a welding torch striker "flint".
That was something that I always have on hand so I thought that I woud try that before tring pyrites.
In mine it make a difference what brand strikers I use. The Lincoln brand seem to work best.
