Simple ways to add detail to your flintlock carving | Isaac Haines Inspired Muzzle Loader Build 

More Longrifle Videos! very hard to find people going into detail on this stuff, thanks

You do great work, I have built four 18th century rifles and didn't even attempt any carving until my third and by my fifth it sure did not come out near to your quality. Curly maple is beautiful, but oh the work needed to make a masterpiece .

Such a great work. Truly amazing 😀😀

Is this Rifle for your self ? If so i understand better your patience , hopfully your videos will bring future clients 😉👏👍🏼

This is the proof of the faulting of the YT algorithm... Two years before the video appears in my suggestion list. How can the algorithm prioritice a whole lot of other uniteresting crap, instead of this genuine interesting video? Thumbs up. Well done! No crappy music, just a good explaining why he preferes to do it, the way he do.

What size parting tool are you using to do your outlining?

I thought you were talking about playing with yourself. Pipe carving,funny stuff.

I built a kibler flintlock kit came out great. But my friend jim at 84 gave me a blank great curly maple he had for 40 years. He said make a flintlock out of this. Iam terrified

You had mentioned about the original artisans that did the carving on the early guns and where they trained. Many were europeans that were trained by masters and were carving religious panels and statues for the churches. They brought their trade with them to America, in Pennsylvania many were Germans.

Thanks for the reply. Sorry I guess what I meant was a V chisel which I’ve heard them called V-parting tools. Do you know what size in MM and degree your tool is. I’ve heard some builders say Pfiel 16/1 which has a 35 degree works well. This is the method of outlining I plan on doing rather than the stab in method.

Thanks for sharing your talent

Beautiful work

Late to the party but what exquisite work!! Starting in on my second gun and going to embellish it with some carving. This is going to be exciting!

Great videos and very helpful!

I ain’t got the patience for that! I’d have it all screwed up in no time! It looks good though

One of the best tutorials ever. Thanks

Awesome talent

Where are you located and do you do relief carving for others?

Lovely!

Hope you’re making enough money.
