We will be getting together again this Saturday for our monthly gun builder workshop.  Stop by and say hello, bring in your project and your questions.  We are there all day long.  Ian Pratt is the lead and he is willing to help with any muzzleloader project you may have.
See you there.

They have been doing monthly get togethers  here in Washington through the Washington historical Gunmakers Guild. I have only been able to make it to one so far but plan to make it apart of my schedule. It was a blast to see what people were working on, share ideas and get a little work done. I made progress polishing out a lock on a English rifle project.

Great pictures and thanks to whoever posted them. Looks like great fun and you gotta admire the library. We're looking forward to having Ian out here again this year at our Gunmakers Fair in Washington.

Regarding the comments on the used books, what you see in the pictures is about 1/2 of the used books that the Log Cabin has for sale.  It really is fun to just look and look, you never know what you'll find.  Next class not until June 30th.

You may not be aware of this, but there is a royalty fee for having Ian travel out of our state for any such endeavors......check your contract, see that really small, very hard to read line down there? That's what I'm refering too......the members of our class get a fee for allowing this.

The library is just for show, but if you guys need to use it that can be arranged too.......
