The pictures really do not do this justice, it was absolutely superb and about as original as you are ever likely to come across, certainly the nicest I have ever seen and remarkably simple as well.

Pictures in action would be nice however not likely to happen.

However the chap has more of the same ilk and I am hoping one day to see more.

He has a pepperbox which I would really like to see.

I'm sure there's a line in a song by the Grateful Dead, about loading something like this with 'rocksalt and nails'...
