Anyway, I'm going to have it cleaned up and anodized (hopefully Claudio can do that), along with the bucket changer, of which I will have to file down some flats on. I'm having Butch make the holster, which will turn out a little different, but I really wanted a western style holster, and he's been working with me on that. Then, I'm going to have Robertsr make me a set of custom sea snail grips, with buffalo nickels inlayed into them. Hopefully, this thing winds up beautiful(er)!
I'd thought about milling a LineSI valve but wasn't sure how much material would be left around the ASA.

Do you have closeups in better light of the milling on the valve? I have one of those valves around; it sure looks purdy on that 'dux!
