Your videos on inletting the major parts are the best I've seen yet. Yours is probably the 15th set of vids I've watched on the subject. Ive read recreating the American longrifle a couple times also. You have filled in some of the missing bits of info and i really feel like i know enough to try my first stock from scratch. I appreciate the details you share and how you emphasize test, shave, test, shave over and over. I'm always amazed that nobody uses hand planes for roughing in the barrel. I have a stanley 45 and a wooden plow, maybe I'll try and find out why.
Beautiful job great lesson! Thank you very much for sharing your skills. Love the fact that you use the small little palm chisels. I wasted so much money on chisels bought a set of Palm chisels and couldn’t be happier. I forget the brand but they are made in Czechoslovakia fractions of the price of Pfiel work perfectly and take a very nice sharp edge.
Another exceptional video. You do an amazing job of explaining everything. I can't wait for the next one. I've learned a lot already. Thanks for sharing your amazing talent and skill.
Exceptional inletting work , The key is taking your time and not to rush your work because in the end it shows. It’s really hard some times to find small thin flat chisels. Usually wind up making what you need, just to spend a few hours watching your inlet techniques would be worth their wait in gold for the builder. Your work is top shelf.
I love the videos where I get to see the work being done. Some guys will talk your ears off about what they are going to do or have done and then cut the video and come back after. It is great that you do the work on camera and explain as you go. BEAUTIFUL JOB 👍👍👍👍 Keep it coming !!!!
Have any of you ever attempted to build a gun with the tang facing down, so it wouldn't be visible? It wouldn't look traditional, but you could inlet it into a wedge or V-shaped opening and just have a friction fit or you could still drill the tang and have a longer mounting screw, but it would be more challenging to do.
