DVD Library/List
« on: February 14, 2009, 06:14:14 PM »
I have done a search and find no evidence that there is a list of favorite DVDs for our particular obsession, American Longrifle Building. If I missed it or you can tell me where to find a library list of help for us, the possessed, please share it.

If such a list has never been compiled, I for one suggest it as a help. Maybe your 5 star rating as to helpfulness and benefit to builders, excellence of photography of originals, etc. could be added.

An exhaustive list with some sort of rating would sure seem to be great asset to this site.

Jack Brooks has a video on engraving and one on carving.  They are sold by R E Davis.

The list is not in the forum, but rather on the main website.  Here is the link "http://www.americanlongrifles.org/Books_frame.htm"

I believe there is a Jim Turpin's dvd out there as well.  Haven't got it yet, but I do have Ron Ehlerts and Hershel House dvds.  They're both excellent.
