Hi Sam,

Welcome!

Lots of good advice in there; much appreciated!!

I'm really looking forward to seeing some of your homemade tools. If you post them directly in the Homemade Tools subforum, we'll add each one to the database, as well as to your builder page on the site.

Any non-tool items should be posted in the Not a Tool, but Homemade subforum.

I've spent some time with the Marlin 45/70 1895G. What a great lever gun - a real boomer!!
