looky what I made today

A loading stand for my cap n ball revolvers:





Made it from scrap materials - the leather is from and old belt. Was going to buy one but looking at the ones in the catalogs, I decided to just fabricate my own- was very easy.

This'll make loading much easier at the range

Hmmmmm Much prettier than mine. I have been using one of the empty slots in my clay pigeon box.

thanks

But hey, if the empty slot works, why worry?

I did't have anything and these scraps were handy...

Very nice!

I thought about making me one, but just haven't got around to it. The materials I have ain't that "perty" but I'm sure it will work

Thanks



Most of the ones I've seen like this are smaller and have a hinge for folding- and they're usually made out of pine or something not too fancy - its the function of the thing that counts.

Now I know what I'm gonna use that old manakin arm for! But I'll have to do something about the trigger finger. Yes, inspiration.
