Kim Thomas Brazier Correction

I transposed the area code on Kim Thomas' phone number in the review of his brazier in the JulyAugust issue. The correct phone number is 330-769-9906. Sorry about that.


Anyway, here is another view of Kim's beautiful brazier. You can see more at mastersinwroughtiron.com

Callahan's Multi-Tool

I got one of Larry Callahan's multi-tools and have been using it when I shoot. I reviewed it in "Prime Possibles" in the July/August 2010 issue. It's a dandy little tool for flintlock shooters and measures about 2-3/4" long. The best way to contact Larry is by phone at 636-475-7444.

Peters' Marlin Spikes

Mike Nesbitt reviewed these marlin spikes by Wally Peters in "Prime Possibles" in the July/August 2010 issue. Historically used by sailors to work with the ropes on a ship, these can also come in handy for working with ropes in a period encampment. You can contact Wally via email at wwpete52@gmail.com.

Childress Buttons

Linda reviewed these thread buttons made by Cheryl Childress in "Prime Possibles" in the July/August 2010 issue of MUZZLELOADER. The black and white image in the magazine showed the detail pretty well, and this image shows the color. The top buttons are dorset wheel style. The 3 on the right are death head buttons in black, red and yellow. The bottom left group are simple thread buttons. You can see more at www.BlueCatButtonworks.com.
