    BeesWax & Olive Oil

    I had an Ox Yoke one do just that. I had a unloaded my rifle into a stump after a not very productve day of hunting, and for some reason was just hanging there watching the world go by for a bit and started seeing smoke. Dug out the patch and the bit of smoking wood, then added a bit of...

    plane irons

    A good source for plane iron stock is from the old 2 man cross cut saws. The old Disstons had right good steel in them and they are thick enough for most molding plane type irons. You can anneal it first to get it soft enough to shape, then retemper it to hold the edge. Tony (lots and lots of...

    The Leatherman Bags

    I have one of this bags, almost identical to that one except it doesn't have the game rings on it. Had it for 6 years now and it has worked well. I did take off that leather piece for a short starter on the strap since I don't use one. The only things that have been a minor bother, is the...

    A QUESTION ON POWDERHORN STRAPS

    Hey Robin I'm sure you have seen my strap. I finally got in touch with the guy that made it and of course he ain't making them no more. Got another horn that I am going to use for the rifle (and use this one for the Tulle) that I need a strap for and ain't decided what I want. Tony

    I have a couple of old mallets that I use. My favorite has an oak head that was made from a section of an old wagon wheel felloe. I've used that mallet heavily for a long time now and it don't look much the worse for the wear. Tony

    Hank, one thing to watch out for with kiln dried cherry, is a lot of it is, for lack of a better word, case hardened, meaning it's dry on the surface and still green in the center. You might not have a problem, but I have know folks that had supposedly kiln dry cherry start warping the day...

    I have made this with regular cheap old off the shelf vinegar and 000 steel wool that was shredded up pretty good. Let it set for 4 days and strained it off. Some folks will jar it, I just use a cut down plastic vinegar jug. If you do jar it, make sure you don't seal the lid tight, I know a...
