Hollowcast Indians Repair


 An earlier post mentioned a cheap box of assorted mostly damaged figures I bought from fellow collector, Bob. Among these figures were some damaged hollowcast Indians.

To repair them I used some copper and brass wire, glue and putty. I also had a go at soldering, which had mixed results. A hole big enough to fit two lengths of wire for the feather supports. The firearm was drilled out and wire inserted. The bases were damaged or absent so washers were used to glue or solder the figures to and the washer holes filled with putty.
