I wasn’t too worried about the hacksaw marks because I thought I’d need to cut a greater portion away. I was told they used dowels to attach them, so I was trying to see em. This was not the case. Either way, it’ll get cleaned up while sanding.
I learned a lesson today.
Too much steel wool can make a different compound called ferrous hydroxides. That would explain the grey color that was appearing the other day. The old batch turned a dull green color. I have a new batch brewing with the proper amounts.
I still have to sand it to the final grit, but after that I may just do that for that exact reason. It also needs a recoil pad. So lots can happen in between steps
Looks good even with the spacers. They’re still coming off though.
Side note:
I’m gonna use the K3 this season. After talking with my dad I remembered just how reliably it kept zero even after some pretty hard crashes on grandpa’s 30-06. We never get rain in Western KS during early december...
I really need to start paying attention to hot threads before they get to 13 pages smh.
Never done the honky tonk toke, but eh whatever. People can do as they please. I only get slightly upset when I'm in the middle of Walmart and I suddenly run into the smell in the middle of the puzzle aisle...
