Edwardkenway Posted August 6, 2023 Author #185 Posted August 6, 2023 I'm still making eyelets and rings, dozens and dozens of the things! I've upgraded my tools for this with new round needle nosed pliers and a decent pair of flush cut snips Oh and I also got a couple of Vallorbe needle files. Thanks to everyone who's looked in, commented and hit the thumbs up. Unfortunately I'm going to have to wait until Christmas time before I can start arming Winnie, this year's list is cannon and more cannon, and maybe chapter 7 parts.

Edwardkenway Posted 14 hours ago Author #188 Posted 14 hours ago Hello again, after a long hiatus I'm back. Getting on for 18 months, I don't know where the time went! The order for Winnie's guns has been placed, so it's just a matter of waiting for them to arrive.
