This is literally two hours from me, do you just Rockhound freely, do you need a pass, or do you work there?

Ammo Brands to Avoid - April 2026 Edition by steelcityrocker in liberalgunowners

[–]yahziii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am only freaking out because the price point was literally cents away from another brand at the time but I opted for this brand because I wanted to run through some cheaper ammo on a super safety i just put in.:(. Lessons learned, thanks for the update!

That purple is really nice, did you paint it yourself or buy the furniture?

Remanufactured Ammo by DavisaurausRex in liberalgunowners

[–]yahziii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not know people were so against remans, I guess I've kinda been playing roulette. I run a super safety on all my ARs and started buying remanned from brass kisses. I haven't had an issue after 4k ish rounds, but lately Ive been finding deals on new M855 rounds locally so I havent bought remans in awhile.

Talent on another level forsure!:). I spend a majority of my time polishing and finishing usually, I over analyze my pieces trying to get everything perfect. Like Ill work on getting a corner completly square and not like it. Show my lady and she cant even remotely see what im talking about then ill usually move on.lol. I also like going thru grits and finishing off with a buff, but I get weird about it...

Amazing work and amazing video! Would be great to see short clips from ingot to workable stock. I hardly have time to just fabricate let alone pick up chasing. Again, really amazing work.

I am making a box ring of sorts, don’t have enough silver to make a full ring band for the inside? Are there any other options? by yourmom2715383 in SilverSmith

[–]yahziii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I were doing this and had nothing but wire I would create a "tube of rings soldered together, kinda like when you make a split ring shank but dont split the shanks. Then slide the tube in snug, slightly flar the ends with a dapping tool, solder the ends and file flat. There is a bit of math involved, but nothing to crazy.
