Hi all,
I am doing a major rebuild project, and need to get detailed picture of the features on the frame bottom - around the area where crane lock and bolt are installed.
I tried to google it, but no luck finding. So I am hoping someone who owns a large frame DW (best if 44 magnum) can make a macro picture of the receiver with parts removed, in a good lighting, to clearly see details there. Basically I need to see the bottom of the frame around the cuts for crane lock and bolt, with trigger guard, crane, crane lock and bolt (parts 3, 26, 42, 37 from the schematic https://www.gunpartscorp.com/gun-manufacturer/dan-wesson/44-dw) removed
Thank you in advance!

Thank you for your interest folks. In my spare time, I am a hobby machinist and gunsmith. Not really much in to 80% thing, but I enjoy doing more challenging gun projects - caliber conversions (built a couple of 22tcm guns in the past), builds from scratch (rem700 clone receiver), major redesign (for example I made a bobtail carry size 1911, not something possible with factory parts). This time I am working on building a new revolver out of parts kit and machining the frame - my first revolver project.
I am aware of this picture set in https://www.danwessonforum.com/forum/reloading/large-frame-disassembly-tutorial-pics/
this was actually a thread that gave me a lot of valuable information.
The picture below is closest to what I need. However, additionally to the angle being a bit wrong (can't see much details on the left bottom where most interesting things are happening), the parts I mentioned in the post above are installed and they hide features in the frame that I need to see...
