Hi all!

Always excited to see you start another project. That is a good choice of lock for the rifle. Have fun and keep us posted.

My advice regarding the lock: polish the frizzen spring, and re-temper to a grey/blue...past that beautiful deep blue, bright blue and then kinda grey. These springs are too hard as received, and will likely break.
Great new project - please keep us posted.

How does the European Alder work as a stock wood? Around here we have red Alder, It's a pretty wood, good for spoons and bowls but really soft. Can't say as I haven't thought about it though, I like the idea of using local wood.

Hi All and thank you!
I will remember that Taylor, thank you. Eric, this is my first build of European Alder but it is nice to work on it . So is the barrel inlet, yes I use my router sorry to your historically correct folks, but I must save the rest of my elbow grease you see ;) Here is a photo of a very nice longrifle Peter Rasmussen from Norway(RIP) build in 1987 of European Alder look at the nice carwing!

Runastav, I LOVE your shop especially your work bench ;D- keep up the fine work and do post many pictures of your progress!
-
Yea, the shop is nice---but check out that "custom" router table ! Where their's a will their's a way. Any curl or grain pattern on that Alder ? In the states alder is much used as a furniture frame wood as well as cabinets. It hates water tho. I have that lock on my rifle--since 1987 really a good one, no problems so far......Tom
-
This side of the Atlantic it's mostly known as "black alder." Pretty soft and easily worked. Wooden clogs were commonly made of the stuff. It's pretty water resistant--the pilings under Venice were (are?) European alder. I believe it was introduced to North America in colonial times and has naturalized. It can be pretty invasive. A fairly short-lived tree and subject to heart rot.
-
I rather like alder smoked beef or moose jerky. With a bit of hickory thrown in - very nice.

Hi All, and thank you!
Alder is nice easy to drill the RR hole. Thank you folks me to like my work bench nice and clean haha :D

I've experienced this problem with frizzen springs on L&R's RPL line of locks as well.

Thanks for posting your build looking forward to watching it come together.
Taylor is the hard spring unique to the frizzen on Late English locks? Or should we be re tempering the main spring as well on the late english? or all LR springs? I have small LR Manton apart for polishing (which I am very pleased to own) just wondering if the springs should done.

Runar,
I didn't understand the last part of your post until I got down to the last picture. Then I understood completely !!!! My work space looks very much like yours and I am constantly banging either the barrel or the butt stock of any rifle on the over head, the walls, other tools, the lights....everything. Too bad I don't like to distress my rifles...all I would need to do is not take them outside for the final smoothing operation.
I always enjoy your posts.
-
yup...there's a couple of places on my ceiling fan blades with dings..... :-X
nice inletting of the locks guts.....I wish I was as neat....
marc n tomtom

I was going to say the same thing. The lock inletting method is great. I'm getting a milling vise to be able to do that. My last rifle looks OK on the outside and like a beaver was gnawing it on the inside.
-
Looking good Runar!

I live halfway around the world yet we have a very similar light setup! Nice follow along, Runastav! Longrifles bring the world together, lol.

Runar's work is always exceptional, and yet you can see he does not have a fortune spent in a whole bunch of expensive, and unnecessary tooling.
A true craftsman from yesterday, and yet making guns that we all enjoy with total awe.
My most sincere compliments to you Runar!

Runar,
Nice work.
The grip rail can be made from one piece of round stock and the bow with front extension from another piece.
Enjoy the progress.

Great thread Runar. Keep them coming!

Hi all, and thank you for comments :)
So I make the butt cap, 1,5 mm and 3 mm steel plates. Use my simple gas forge but its work fine I think

Awesome work. You inspired me - I'm in the process of building my own set triggers for my current project. Don't think my hands would hold up to all the other fabricating you're doing. Bravo.

Hi All!
Okei, the stock shape is about finish and the patina on the forestock is a bonus hehe ;)

Looking good Runar! How DID you achieve that patina on the forestock? :o That must have taken days and days...

Always enjoy watching your builds.
Some constructive critique, if I may. I'd remove about half of the wood beneath your ramrod, all the way to the lock.
-
Hi Runar,
Wonderful project. However, regardless of whatever Bookie's plans show, I agree 110% with Taylor's critique. The gun looks pretty nice now but it will look much more elegant if you do as Taylor suggests. In addition, I urge you to remove more wood from along the ramrod channel as well. That will make the gun look much slimmer.

Hi and thank you !
Looks better now boys? I reduse hight all way from front of lock panel to muzzle ca 2-3mm

I like your rifle their Runar and you have convinced me to put one on my "list to build". I also have Bookie's Book and will start to gather parts. I will make the butt plate & triggerguard as you have shown along with the other metal parts. Thanks for the inspiration and pictures. As I am not a "book-of-knowledge" on this style of rifle I can not comment on it's architecture - but Bookie know what he is doing ;). Looking forward to more progress on your build 8).
-
Yes, that looks better. Now expose a little more of the barrel by taking wood off the top of the forearm to a little more than half of the side flat. Be sure to shape the forearm into a nice egg shape, rather than leave it slab sided.
-
Looking better all the time. Keep up the good work and thanks for keeping us posted.
Bob

I like it Runar, but the only thing I question would be how far down from the comb the bottom of the cheek piece is. Is that where your plan wants it to be? I have no idea where it should be as I have no experience with that style of gun so there fore I ask. Nonthe less I loved watching your build and like the end product.
-
Hi All and thank you!
smylee grouch, I dont know only try to make ala Bookies style :)
Pewter nosecap finish, not perfect but I think ok. I use milk box as a casting frame work great but it must be Norwegian milkbox hehe ;)

Runar, you are just amazing. Go man go! I am looking forward to seeing the completed rifle.
I think it is super you are building an American style rifle and posting here in English. Well done.
Best wishes, Marc
-
Looking forward to seeing your rifle with finish on it. I am most interested is seeing how you handle the repaired areas on your stock. I have one in process that has a repaired area also. I am struggling with how to blend the repair into the rest of the rifle. (I guess that's not really news, since I have struggled with most aspects of this build.) Great looking rifle by the way!
-
Runastav: your forearm looks good: more than half of the barrel and rod exposed, and slimmed down in the lower area. Very nice work, and like every one else, I'm looking forward to seeing the finished rifle.
-
Hi All, and thank you for reply!
The Touch Hole and sights now finish, so the rifle is now shining in thewhite :)

Fantastic work as always Runar :) My kongsberg M1829 project is slowly but steady getting closer, looking forward to your project ;)

Runar, I have to know the story of that splice looking part of your stock. You always have interesting build posts.
-
Hi Folks, and thank you!
Clark B, the big @!*%?& knot was like a musketthole. So before shaping the forestock I splice in new wood in a 2 times. First #1 and after dried 24 hour then #2 and innside a frame of brass shim is epoxy in place. Think it is much stronger in the repered seksjon ;)
