Ttang! Ttang! Ttang!
With the first part making up the whole item being successfully made, it more or less went without saying that the entire forging process went quite smoothly.
Of course, that did not mean that there were a few hiccups along the way, such as when Valyr decided to swap out the original parts for gears in the firing mechanism.
Originally, the matchlock mechanism used a couple of pins and springs to achieve the movement it had.
To make the mechanism more reliable, Valyr changed the mechanism to rely on gears instead, having gone through multiple iterations of it in the drafting process.
In the end, he decided to mix both gears and springs into the mechanism, reminding himself that gears were quite difficult to make without the necessary machinery.
With that, it was no surprise that Valyr blew through a lot of the circles he had cut out of the material he chose for the gears.
