Very nice first go at it! I really like the mottling and there is good straw, brown, purple and blue. Keep it up! What are you using as an air source in the quench tank? Also, what are you using for packing?

We use a fish pond aerator and we use the wood and bone charcoal from Brownells

Michael,

The colors are coming along nicely. I particularly like the C. Sharps and the Colt Single Action.

That single action is actually a Ruger

Any problems with warping?

None we blocked the parts that are prone to warp and had no problems.

Is this at CST? What is the cost? They didn't offer any class back in 1986, didn't have any instructor to teach the process.

I am an instructor at CST but these classes are done in my shop on weekends. I graduated in 1978 and came back to teach for a little while 3 years ago. My next two classes are full but I can post a schedule when I firm it up.
