Fred, Yes I have many pictures. I will post some. Let me know if there is something else you want to see. The first one shows the method I used to convert the 2D drawing (from Brophy's 1903 Springfield Rifles book) into 3D solid models. The 2D drawing was imported into the CAD software and then scaled to full size using some known dimensions. The various parts were outlined, depths inputted and the solids extruded. Once the solids are completed the software will create 3 view drawings. The models are also useable for 3D printing or nc machining. Salt Flat
