8-28-15 UPDATED: Pictures 1906 Navy basket case project, fini!

[DonVoigt]

Well a few days have gone by and the upper arrived. It is in really nice condition and installed.
The basket case is now together and ready to test fire on Tuesday.

As noted before the lower is serial 911a, and First Torpedo Division marked(Kiel), the upper
is number 8284, and in very good original finish with a fine bore and matching toggle.

My thanks to all who made available parts and pieces for this project.

The last piece to finish this will be a blank DWM side plate or a commercially numbered one; 11, or 84 would be even better.
The side plate shown is a police cut unit, with the face milled down by someone to remove the numbers.

I have talked with Mr. Danner about a restoration refinish of the frame; if the test firing goes well, I'll be sending him the frame for a good look.

Here are pictures from today.
