Re: My Kinda Stress Ball...
I too used a patched ball holder similar to yours' but had never thought of making it into the shape of a cross. Really like that. Maybe I'll make some.

The above antique .445 round ball mold came from the Joe Kindig Jr. Collection.
My Grandfather did antique restoration work for Joe back in the day.

I'll be darned. I had one of Joe's books many years ago.
My current muzzleloader is a club-butt Marshfield fowler, such as my Wood ancestors in Plimoth would possibly have owned in the early 1700s. Mike Brooks of Iowa built her for me. She is .75 caliber.

Thinking of doing the same YK.
I think I'm going to use Bethlehem olive wood.
eBay has it.
Here is the link about the one pictured.

That is the best Idea for a loading block I have ever seen ! Thanks for sharing! 
Re: My Kinda Stress Ball...
Cshold that is real cool. Some years ago, I carved my sister (a missionary) a large ivory crucifix with all edges chamfered and a high polish. Perhaps it's times for another, maybe mammoth this time.
