making key bushing cauls

[Dean May]

My son-in-law does the rebushing work. It was his preference. Seems like the
Spurlock 2 caul method made everything easier, neater and quicker. The
Bushmaster was a little cumbersome. But, again, I am relaying second hand
and my memory is a little foggy.

Dean, what was problem with the Bushmaster?

A really nice advantage to the Spurlock 2 step, is the use of a different
thickness of bushing cloth on one side to make a perfect fit.
