    SOLD Standard maple woodsrunner

    45 caliber. It was hard for people to see very much figure on this bare stock. Looked like a clutter of dark areas. No dark tiger strips. Surprised me to finally see what was in between the dark areas. Beautiful silky 3D sparkling waves.......labrat

    double set trigger question

    SDS Thank You for your great photos & input. The screw that you point out is where I put the spacer. Under the leaf spring raising it too much. I have the two adjusting screws set now.......labrat

    double set trigger question

    Gentleman Thank You for your feedback. I took the trigger assemble apart again, 4th time and was bound & determined to figure this out. Pretty simple mechanism really. Long story short it was my fault. While taking it apart and putting all the parts in a small box it seems I had a small...

    Woodsrunner finished

    2 years ago I built my first kit a Kibler Colonial. That was my first introduction to flintlock rifles and building a kit. All the questions and how to information I received was from this wonderful web site. I knew how to engrave but that was the extent of my building knowledge. Thank...

    Woodsrunner finished

    Laurel Mountain Maple Stain with no iron added. 7 coats of Tried & True and lots of sun. Seems to me that the stain got lighter basting in the sun between coats........labrat

    Woodsrunner 99% completed

    First off Thank You all for your feedback, instructions and help that I surely needed. I know how to engrave but I lack all the other points of putting together a good looking rifle. I freaked out on the color stain, honey maple, that I thought I put on too heavy but came out just what I...

    Need some advise on my finished stock

    Thank you all again for your thoughts and opinions on my situation. I think i'll bite the bullet and let the dent stay. The tried & true has many coats already protecting it from water preparation. So it would require me to remove it, which is the last thing I want to do, and I believe I...

    Need some advise on my finished stock

    99% completed woodsrunner and I put a dent in the stock (!#&@). Just finished drying a 6 coat finish of Tried & True. The dent is a smooth shallow circle about a 3rd the size of a dime. My question is with the newly applied finish will it cause damage to try and steam it out right now? Or...

    Honey maple stain

    This rifle will display nicely with my dark Colonial I built a couple of years back. I like the blond color and I just wanted to be a little different as I see that most flintlocks are dark. My flintlocks are more for display with very little firing. I hope to interest my kids & grand kids to...

    Ramrod Striping??

    Yes very easy to do with a propane torch. I spaced mine 1 inch apart with blue masking tape. Looks better if you space them irregularly, Willey Nelly style. Hang the rod in the middle of a room so you can go around it. The masking tape will burn some put the image will already be there...

    Honey maple stain

    Thank you for your help full thoughts. I tried a test on the stained wood of the barrel cavity and found that most everything I did resulted in a darker stock unless I rub the stain down to almost nothing. To avoid more work I decided to keep what I have. Don't get me wrong I love the light...

    Honey maple stain

    Finished the staining and have a few questions. This picture was taken in the early morning sun and it shows to be very light and golden. Actually its darker and I was going to ask you how I can remove some of the darkness. I put the first coat on too heavy not remembering to put on light...

    My used Pedisoli Kentucky rifle

    Just finished cleaning up the lock, draw filing the barrel, and scrapping the finish off the stock. Really turned out nice for a used gun with a lot of dents and scraps removed from the stock & barrel. I believe it's American walnut, not to dark. I'd like to finish it with a light reddish...
