I can't express my gratitude for these videos! I'm an experienced smith and woodcarver but I've never built a rifle. I'm sure you are saving me many missteps. Thank you!
Looks great Josh! I'm lucky -there are 2 old hardware stores just up the road from me. I walk in with a beat up screw and walk out with a handful of matches for a dollar. The one store has been in business since 1850. Also fantastic suggestion on threading ad smashing the wood!!!! I tell guys this all the time.
Great series of videos, but when are you going to add more ???? I like the way you do the work and explain as you go. Can't wait for more !!! What happened ???? 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Never even thought about measuring the length of the threads so the wood won't get smashed. That's a good tip. Do you case harden the screws or would that stand too much chance of warping them?
Thanks man for showing this video. I live all of your work man. I’d like to see more videos of your forging muzzleloader parts and axes.
Thank you for a very educational video. Thank you!

Glad to help!! Thank you for watching.
I make my bolts too, and i never knew about bottoming out the threads.. What a great idea.. Keep them coming..
You should find you a small metal lathe. It would come in very handy. That is a lot of filing...
Great vid sir! Your work is lovely. Got my sub. 👍
Thanks for the sub!
Love the videos great tutorials will be using these videos to help me with my build!
Oh no I see you have one. Didn't finish the video before posting. I have a bad habit of doing that...
You are good
Perfect! Greetings from Germany.

Lucky!! Just make sure your lock and tang screws bottom out in the threads so the wood doesn't smash.

i think those lock screws heads looked better with the hammered look unfiled ??
Awesome! Thank you for this
