Moved in a new to us fridge and removed the old one after working today.
What did you accomplish today?

On a fluke, just walking the old hound, met a young man...........came home with a 1862 Tower, black powder rifle. One major problem......the stock is broken off........got some thinking to do.........to make long short, I gave the young gentleman three heavy duty 50 gal plastic barrels barrels and an oz. of Chocolope.......he's happy, I'm happy......love bartering around here. So many versions of this rifle, I haven't identified........0.577 caliber, shot 24" barrel.

If you don’t care about cosmetics, some epoxy and glass fabric will make it shootable.

Friend in Mass had flooding and tornado warnings all night last night. Was happy to hear they escaped for the most part. Crazy ass stuff.

Looks like more of a wall hanger than a shooter to me.

The metal looks sound so I’d give it a try.

I value my vision more than trying to fire something that old.

It's just "art" to me.......I don't shoot anything but pics. My parents had a deep interest in Revolutionary and Civil War, must have rubbed off.

A fun project would be to make a new stock. I'd keep the old one though if the gun is an antique vs a modern replica for collector value

What did you do today that you're proud of? Something at work, home, school, personal achievement, etc...
Today I had gravel dropped off and I put in a new driveway. It was a lot of work but I got it done quicker than I thought I would.
This morning I had to do a complete water change/cleaned out my Turtles 55 gallon tank, and set up a new area for her to bask on. Then a couple hours ago I started processing 100 pre-rolls for a friend of mine. Just finished stuffing the last king sized Raw cone into its tube, and all I need to do is slap on the labels!! I feel like I definitely deserve this glob of party foul hash rosin I'm about to drop.
