Spirit of South Carolina 250th WorkoverJuly 13ArticleJuly 13$3 tier & up 50 14 Louis Daniel NimscheApril 30 View post An 1860 Henry dropped by the shop yesterday for some post auction oil. Several items strike the casual viewer....Its condition (STUNNING on the Anvil scale), and the Nimsche engraving. Nimsche maintained his own shop from 1850 till he was done in 1904, doing custom work for the big boys on a contract basis. His final count was over 5000 units during his career. Note the vestigial silver plating . This example was procured by a confederate officer DURING the conflict, so there's that.....money talks? This unit is to be displayed in a museum here in Charleston, along with several other period pieces of equipment. What a honor to even be allowed to handleArticleApril 30Public 0 23 Rib deconstruct and re-layReally early M12 solid rib was part way off. Believe me, like electrical joints, the joint must be completely torn down and rebuilt.

Then the project is run mentally 10's of times to find long term "gotchas".ArticleMarch 5Public 0 25 Moments with mark 15Pepperbox is very glitzy and bespoke. I do not make there kind of videos, and they will not consider us, so that is a no go. THIS platform will not host Rumble URL's, so that is a no go also. The current plan is to do a short style video here, and tell you where it is on Rumble in this comments area.Videomark 15Public 0 23 YT is at it again: Anvil 0155The M1 carbine video was just a bridge too for for yt. Not only did they pull it, we got a strike and lost "privileged access" for the attempt. It was at 30k views and climbing. I reloaded it here , and am reviewing long term options for where we can host. The Rumble option is being exploited in parallel, however this platform will not allow URL imbeds from them.VideoFebruary 4Public 0 29
