C Bernard restoration help needed

[George M. Purtill Member #28]

This is not a post, It is a tribute to the men who have worked on this project.
Look at the top picture, taken on Edgar's kitchen table months ago. Look at the pictures below, taken today.
FYI- some pitting had to stay. But surprisingly, it's really only visible under photography.

The barely dog is now visible in all its glory. Again, the pitting is not visible under normal conditions.
To remove all the little pocks would have destroyed the original engraving.

She's gonna be a real beauty when she's done. The cleanup on that receiver is amazing.

This is what the barrels looked like in Edgar's kitchen on March 2, 2013 and this is what they look like now.

So George, when are we going to see the finished Product? Stock by Chris Dawe, barrels by Brad and the receiver by Tom Carter and the engraver all together in your hands.
