Re: A big Bulino cat
Thank you for the reply and the good advice Mr. Hands. Another tip that I have learned on my own is to choose a "new" gun to engrave for ease of finish. I bought this gun in 1989(ish) and in that time it has been used for an emergency paddle and run over by a pickup truck. It has killed many ducks and geese over several great dogs ... since gone. It is amazing the memories and emotions that come forth upon sanding a cold piece of steel back through all the dings, scratches and great memories that they represent. This gun has taken a good 8-10 hours to file and sand back to a 600 finish. But so far it has been worth it, and I hope that I am worthy of the task of further embelishment of this "ole buddy"
Thanks again
Barry
