In and out of the mill,... massaged into rough form, than spotted into the recess with some judicious hand filing. The recess sees just a bit of adjustment,but with the beefy new "hook" getting the lion's share of fitment.







Wouldn't you know it, right there in the face of the thing there's a little porosity / asperity. No biggie, another "dab" of the nickle rod will be required (once this weather breaks).

A cut away cartridge case is used to lay out the outer rim recess radius



That radius is than cut to JUST barely below the level of the rim recess in the barrel shank / chamber.



Yup, a little bit of weld repair, and final polishing and this extractor's back in business.



At this point an old badly oversized case was hammered into the chamber, and the actuating tail of the extractor belabored with a copper punch, driven by a fairly good sized hammer. Looks good, and it will never see that amount of force again in normal service.

time to go see why my well pressure switch froze last night,....looks like the brooder lamp bulb may need a replacement.

Cheers !
