Default Drop Points

The drop points shown in the photos of this "new 1893 DH" are about as nice an example of a skilled stock maker properly weilding the gouge to make the points and valleys. Perfect continuity of the curves, and artistic symmetry.

Best, Austin

Yes, I agree - classic Parker Bros. stock work at its finest.
