Build from a blank info.
« on: November 25, 2012, 03:12:42 AM »
Looking for a Tutorial that was posted a while back on building a long rifle from a blank stock with pictures showing step by step. Been looking for 4 days with no luck.
any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Mark.

i know just the feeling...

hey try this one:  http://americanlongrifles.org/forum/index.php?topic=12365.0

there will always be variations on the process/tooling, don't let that distract you.  You'll likely be done before I am. ??? ::) ;D

enjoy.

and also get a copy of Recreating the American Longrifle, Shumway, Buchele, Alexander.  It's an old-timey tutorial, no batteries or nuthin.

24 here tonight and it's about time! i think i can already hear a sneaky buck crunching through the leaves at daylight. 

the "chunk gun" threw me off that one (i posted) for a while, but when i looked i found a nice tutorial on gun building. pic and word heavy.  it's all the same but for the details right?

now where's my jug...
