Getting started

[mikesto44]

Pearl drum like others have said you don't need a lot.
I have a 1/4 inch, 1/8 gouge and the same in chisel s.
Plus a wood block hammer for lightly tapping a chisel when needed. Like you the Kiblers just don't leave me with enough challenge. But dang they sure do turn out nice.
After I built a couple of guns from scratch. I bought the late Hershel House gun building CD. It was an eye opener to how little tools you really need to build a gun. Cheers an have fun..!

 

[PEARL DRUMS]

I have two small chisels coming my way and I stopped at my buddies shop and grabbed some old walnut and maple stock pieces to practice on. I'm going to dismantle a TC lock and use it as template to start my inletting journey. Again, thanks for all the tips guys.

Bought two of these chisels. You supply or make your own handles. So.far their only limitation is my poor sharpening skills.
