I have a few more bits and pieces to go, I loath working with Brass and thats the final piece of the jigsaw.

I spend about three hours yesterday kneading putty epoxy and wrapping it around the string and then another three after it had dried scoring the putty to give the grip effect...

My attempt



What do you think?

Looks spot on. You're an artist Krupi.

Forgive me for asking this, but doesn't the gun button look a bit big, or is that the perspective of the photo?

Its just the perspective mainly, but I think your right it is a little bit too wide.

Not bad at all Krupi, I'd be pleased with that if I were you.

Whats bad about working with brass? - just cos its hard wearing and not so soft?

Kind of the opposite brass is soft but hard, so you need quite a sharp file to work it and my old mans are not what you would call in great shape I brought some new files but they are needle files so its taking ages
