fancy steampunk blunderbuss rifle

Step 7 The trigger

I used a swirl from the chandelier and an old coathook to make up the trigger. I cut the swirl off and mounted it like the butt, using its existing threaded rod, and a wooden dowel and glue. The coathook, I just screwed in after drilling pilot holes.

Make sure you can hold it properly for placement before drilling (and mount it facing the right way...doh).
