Ran out of #11 caps, and couldn't find any for sale.
Realized I had several hundred #10 caps left from revolver project. They won't go on a #11 nipple, but fit just fine on a #11 filed down to accept the #10 size. Chucked a new #11 nipple in the drill press, then removed metal a little at a time until #10 caps slipped on with a firm thumb pressure. Hope I don't run out of #10.........
