A Dremel tool in the wrong hands equals ugly

[fox-admin]

I got a picture from Dan May who is doing some work on the DE I bought from a pawn shop, DE 21209. The as received gun had hair triggers. Dan sent me the picture of the ruined hammers, someone took a dremel tool to the hammer sear notches to lighten the trigger pulls. The hammers need to be replaced.

well add that tool to the list

when I found the structural damage in our house project - the nit wit who last remuddled cut off a couple 200 year old beams 4 inches from the wall -


i said then you should have to have a class 3 license to own a saws-all

That is quite a good amount of damage Craig. I am sure that Dan has replacement hammers, or plans on getting some from Jason, but if he wants to contact me for good used ones, I am sure I have a few sets.

That Lefever Optimus that I just finished restocking had already been restocked in the last 10 years or less by a now retired, but very well known smith.
Every bit of the inletting was cut with a dremel tool. And hunks of bedding was coming out attached to the metal when I took it apart. And everything else on the outside was also a mess from a craftsmanship standpoint.

The dremel tool does have its uses at the gun bench, but they are limited and should be very few.
