Hgreat joob on the ball starter. Just got into muzzle loading myself, this is a nice thing to make range shooting a bit easier. I have been using cnc machines for a while now and just ran a few of these with mesquite. I cut counterbore slightly larger than the barrel O.D. so the balls are self centering.
Excellent, something I should try at some point. I've never had a need for one as I shoot bore diameter greased round ball with no patch in my smooth bores. I don't have any rifles that use patched round ball. But I do have a couple 1820s militia muskets with odd sized bores that need a patched ball.
Cute, but walls are too thin and will break out. Try drawing a pattern on graph paper and seeing how it lays out next time.. some things are better off, not to eyeball

I've been thinking of doing this as well, going to use paint stirring sticks for starters. Thanks for posting.
