    Made a patching board

    Team.

    Made a rudimentary board this evening. Once I got my head round to use it the board works GREAT. Highly recommend.

    Yeah, Come on Jeff. You know better than to post about a new gizmo and not have pictures along with it. Esp now that I have started paper patching for my 45-70 I need all the help I can get.

    Best wishes from the Boer Ranch,

    If Jeff doesn't have a camera, you can look at this one for right twist rifling. It was Jeff's inspiration...

    I even had them crooked, uneven, and some overlapped. One batch I wrapped upside down, starting the wrap at the base.
    Once I got the size correct, they were all winners.
    I use smokeless, so the properties of black powder are probably different.
    All I know is it works better than store bought.
