Here is a shot of the cylinder for my Remmie. I clamped it between two blocks of wood, and went at it with my Dremel-Tool. If I remember it took about 45 minutes to grind the profiles, and another 15 or 20 minutes to sand them.
This is just another shot edited to highlight the cut, as the difference may not be obvious, especially to individuals not familiar with Remingtons.
This is an isometric view of the 3D model I'm working on (in my spare time). Please note that the nipple pockets are not exact ... the pockets are at an angle, and the only tools at my desk are a caliper, tape measure and a protractor. I had to make "Educated guesses" on some of the measurements. It doesn't help matters when the nipple pockets (like the chambers) are, basically, tapered.
Here is a Top View of the Ted Cash Snail style Pistol capper. I should mention, that before I modified it, this capper worked with the 1860 Colt Army I used to have ... but not the 1851 Navy I used to have.
