Tackled the German silver front sight piece work today. Made the shape on cardboard, copied it to the metal, ground it best I could with the 4 1/2" grinder, used 600 grit too long, drilled the 5/64" then 3/32" in the piece, found and ground the sides of an old nail, and then it was done.
Length was too long, but then I cut too much off. Not too noticeable, but I know it. When all else is done on her, I'll revisit the length. Maybe these pics and stock inletting pics, then that final wall mount pic will be it.
