Ohio people?

[Willbarq]

Since I am new here, I wondered how many of you happen to be in Ohio and build? I know there are a few, but who else? Creeping along on my first build(s).

I am not in Ohio, but in Western Pa.  I will be at Schoenbrunn Village Fair Oct 17 - 18, near New Philadelphia, Ohio.  Stop by and visit.

Lots of Ohio people on here.
There is a Gun Builders Fair next weekend Oct 9th and 10th at the Log Cabin Shop in Lodi Ohio.  Stop by and say hello.  There will be several people working on guns and displaying items that have been built in the classes at Log Cabin.
The show is free, hours are noon to 6 on Friday and 9 to 6 on Saturday.

I went so far as to figure out a route , but I can't. Finances won't allow it.

I'm really close to Defiance! I am thinking they should rename the city "Fort Defiance" just like "Fort Wayne"

good tips on swamped barrel inlet would be appreciated. Seems to be good tutorials on straight but not a swamped. I need to look further here however.

[bonron]

Delivered, in Fremont,  does excellent work.

Wilbarq, I am a very long way from Ohio, but I did a tutorial some years ago that  I could send you a link to.
I bet it would help.
e-mail me and I send you the link.

Thanks for the complement
Still have and use the nice little Q-maple mallet you gave me back many years ago at Conner Prairie.
I always remember were it came from!
Thanks

Send the stock and barrel to someone who does this kind of work.  It is money well spent!

I prepared an extra blank for fudge up. Gonna try on that. Saving the nicer piece for a second gun.

I just wanted to say--this put a smile on my face. A very kind and welcoming offer!   It was a similar offer from Gaeckle that got me into this hobby and it's great to see that that spirit is still around!  Kudos.
