.500 N.E Farquharson

Post by Ralph Badenhorst »

Dagse manne

Ek krap nou die dag rond in ons winkel en ontdek toe hierdie aksie.

'n Farquharson enkelskoot aksie, die oorspronklike kaliber was n 450 3 1/4'' Nitro Express. Met die "baas" se toestemming gaan ek nou vir my n .500 3'' Nitro Express bou. Die ooreenkoms is dat ek die wapen self bou  8) Maar ja Natuurbewaarders het mos nou nie eintlik naweke af nie, so hierdie projek gaaaaaaan n Laaaaaaaang termyn projek wees.

Ek't vandag die aksie ge-case harden as n proeflopie en die kleure so na as moontlik aan die oorspronklike te kry. Maar ek hou glad nie van die kleur verspreiding nie alowel dit korrek is vir die 1800's. Dit lyk vir my teveel na n gesmelte toffee!!!

Gee maar julle insig:

Dit gaan sker nog 'n pragstuk wees soos ek jou werk ken.

Kan die case hardening proses beheer om die kleure se verspreiding te laat vloei soos jy wil?

Ek het vinnig gesien hoe die ouens op American Guns een aand dit gedoen het. Dit lyk so effe na 'n warm proses.

Korrek ek kan kleure manipuleer na my smaak of n klient s'n. Ja nee ek't daardie episode gesien van American guns, iets wat ek nie verstaan nie is dat hulle nooit naby skote gewys het van die eindproduk nie. die bietjie wat ek kon sien het vir my gese dat hulle case hardening gevlop het.

Kyk hoe verskil die werk wa ek al gedoen het:

Holland & Holland

1873 Win

Mauser

.22 Win

Nog n mauser

Ja dit is nogal n hittige proses. Baie ouens wat die self probeer sal 99% van die keer hul aksies kraak of breek.

Dankie!

Ek is tans besig om die loop te roes blou en n paar nuwe parte op die cnc masjien te sny. Die geweertjie se sneller het afgebreek, die "7 leaf Express sights" is stukkend en die kolf is gebreek...

Ralph , dit is mooi, ek sou net meer helder kobalt blou kleure wou sien...miskien dink daaraan om potasuim nitraat by die quenstank te gooi...kan moontlik blouer kleure tot pers skakerings gee..

Ralph,
Ek is geen kenner nie, maar vir my leke oog lyk die aksie se kleure baie mooi.
Groete,

Gaan hom vandag weer case Harden. Ek't gister die kleure gerepliseer tot die era van die aksie (1800's). Mens moet in ag neem dat wanneer daar grafering op n aksie is mens nooit helder kleure sal kry nie

Ek post vanmiddag fotos

Nou is ek tevrede.

Ek't vir my n mooi Engelse Okkerneut plank gaan kies uit ons versameling, soos die "kenners" se n "thin shelled English Walnut Blank". Dink dit gaan n mooi klasieke wapen wees. Ek wil meskien my pa se arm draai om hierdie wapen weg te gee by HUNTEX2013. Maar sal eers moet mooi praat ;)

Die onderste gedeelte ( sneller-beul, hefboom etc.) is volgende.

Goeie naand

Nee jong hy staan nog in die kluis , bestellings op ons ander gewere veroorsaak dat ek hom soe bietjie afskeep.

Maar ek stem saam ek moet weer tyd maak om aan hom te werk.
