Well thanks folks.....

Kearcher has given up on me, saying he wont take it on due to chamber face pits, sheesh, can anyone explain how the hell this can weaken the action??? Sorry ok i am stupid, however.....seems that weld or solder a plate on or whatever, its just steel being kicked backwards into a lot more steel is it not??? same strength as ever is it not????

I need smiths i can mail photos to, otherwise things become complex.......

Thanks

Ben
