    Okay, who else out there misses the days when craftsmanship like this was considered the Quality Norm rather than the exception?
    Remember anything and everything ever built using American-engineered and American-manufactured electric motors? How the machines they drove lasted multiple generations, and then after 87 years continuous duty the motors were disassembled, cleaned, lubricated, given new commutator brushes, and then put back into service for another three or four generations after the shells were stripped and repainted?
    It's the electric motors I remember the most. I have an original Baldor buffer that sounds like a choir of angels when running and requires about two minutes to come to rest after switching off. The original HVAC blower motor in my house was still going strong when the entire HVAC system had to be replaced (for other reasons) after forty years of continuous service.
    Anyone remember stuff like that? It was everywhere, all the time, and it was our Baseline Expectation for everything in our lives.
    Boy, it did my old heart a lot of good watching this craftsman turn out (okay, pun intended) a beautiful piece of truly functional equipment in the current environment of the cheap Chinese slap-dash manufacturing garbage with which we're being inundated today.
    Thanks for this, Turnbull.

    Alternating travel direction makes a nice pattern. Thirty years ago when I was doing this, I ran the travel direction the same way each time, i.e. start at the rear of the bolt for each row, off set by half diameter both ways. Honestly, I think yours looks better. Incidentally a 1911 barrel hood looks good jeweled.

    Beautiful work! Jeweling adds a touch of class to any metal project; I'm working on a couple small copper sheets for trim in remodeling our 1986 vintage kitchen. JB Bore Cleaner works great on soft metal with a 1/2" Dremel polishing tip and Dremel drill press. The only turnbolt rifle I have left is the Mossberg .22 that my late brother used to impart the basics of safety and marksmanship to my much younger self some 66 years ago (rheumatoid arthritis has dictated soft recoiling semi-autos for my small centerfire stable). I've toyed with the idea of turning the flats of the hammer and trigger on my SP-101. Thanks to your generosity in sharing a bit of your hard earned knowledge and craftsmanship the only things barring the way are a dozen or so higher priority projects. Retirement is never boring. Thank you and God bless!

    Ah yes, Jeweling, or Engine turning. Did this as a Service/Custom Gunsmith at Weatherby in Atascadero and Paso Robles for 12 years before the company relocated to Sheridan Wyoming. It demands utmost attention to keep the pattern straight and even from pass to pass. There were two ways of doing this 1). Wet: using lapping compound and brush as shown here. or 2). Dry: Using a fine grit impregnated rubber Krytex tip in a custom holder, mostly used to touch up existing jeweling.

    I love this finish, as a watchmaker we call it Perlage, its such a gorgeous finish! We use something called Pin polishers which are basically 1mm-3mm in diameter and made of a rubber compound with diamond or other abrasive grit impregnated within the rubber, we use it in the same fashion on a drill press of sorts, not sure if they would work as well for rounded surfaces like these as we normally are using them on flat surfaces, but i would love to see someone try using one instead of the bristles.
