I like to read detailed descriptions of how and why others put together their creations. Why they chose to do something one way instead of another; what they think is more aesthetically pleasing; the mistakes they make. (There is only one way to learn; by making mistakes).

Ithacaartist has posted his rendition of tapering a Luger barrel. I found that interesting and even tried his method; it worked out quite well, surprisingly. (Well, surprising to me!)

I wish more of the members of this forum would post pics and explanations of what they've accomplished.
Rich,
I'll do that. I've been waiting till I had the entire story ready!

Meanwhile how about a link to the "tapering" thread, I missed it!
