Title: WILTON GUIDE
Post by: GENEG on Nov 04, 2025, 07:54 PM
Prior to the crash of the old GG site, I saved a link to a topic on there about Wilton Bullets.  Of course it is now a dead link.  I recently acquired a 4" in pieces.  Appears to be all there & isn't beat to death.  Gave it a citric acid soak & then some boiled lindseed oil over the remaining paint to prevent rerusting.

Does anyone have that discussion saved or a link to it?  I seem to remember it had everything you needed to know about Wilton Bullets.. Thanks

Unfortunately everything went "down with the ship" when the old site crashed. We all lost a huge amount of good content in that fiasco.

Thanks,  I assumed as much, but hoped someone had saved more than a link like I did.

I can get thru it, but remember that all sorts of tips & techniques were in the posts.

no matter what-- I got a free Wilton bullet

Doesn't exist if we don't see a picture of it!   ;D

I've picked up two Wilton bullets over the last few months.
