Chad posted a photo a while back of a crown he cut that once fired you could see distinctive swirls in. I meant to save it so i could use it to educate a few buddies on the importance of crowns but i must have forgot and now i cannot find it.

does anyone know which thread of his that picture was in?

Does anyone have similar pictures of a bad crown?
 
Re: Need help finding a C. Dixon muzzle crown picture

My son informed me today that he's going to the Boulder Colorado School of Mines and Technology to pursue a Mechanical Engineering degree.

As a result, views of my crowns now cost .99.

I take Visa.

"The Mining Engineer" Song of the Colorado School of Mines - Golden, CO

I wish I had a barrel of rum and sugar three hundred pounds,
The college bell to mix it in and clapper to stir it round.
Like every honest fellow, I take my whisky clear,
I'm a rambling wreck from Golden Tech, a helluva engineer.

A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva engineer,
A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva engineer,
Like every honest fellow, I take my whisky clear,
I'm a rambling wreck from Golden Tech, a helluva engineer.

And if I had a daughter, I'd dress her up in green,
I'd send her up to Boulder to Coach the football team,
But if I had a son, sir, I'll tell you what he'd do,
He'd yell "To hell with Boulder," like his daddy used to do.

He'd yell "To hell with Boulder," like his daddy used to do.
He'd yell "To hell with Boulder," like his daddy used to do.
But if I had a son, sir, I'll tell you what he'd do,
He'd yell "To hell with Boulder," like his daddy used to do.

Now here we have the mining man, in either hand a gun.
He's not afraid of anything, and he's never known to run.
He dearly loves his whisky, and he dearly loves his beer,
He's a shooting, fighting, dynamiting mining engineer.

A shooting, fighting, dynamiting mining engineer.
A shooting, fighting, dynamiting mining engineer.
He dearly loves his whisky, and he dearly loves his beer.
He's a shooting, fighting, dynamiting mining engineer.

If you want to gear the planets that revolve around the sun,
We'll do the job up nicely, and we'll only call it fun,
And if you want a bridge to Mars, or a ten-foot shaft to hell,
We're the engineers of a thousand years and we'll do the job right well.

The engineers of a thousand years and we'll do the job right well.
The engineers of a thousand years and we'll do the job right well.
And if you want a bridge to Mars, or a ten-foot shaft to hell,
We're the engineers of a thousand years and we'll do the job right well.

The Miner’s “M”, a symbol of a brand of mining men,
Whose courage knocks the mountains down and builds them up again,
No matter in this paydirt world orediggers choose to roam,
Mines is always with them, The “M” still stands for home.
