New England fowler plans

[MountainEMTIV]

I’m wanting to make a New England fowler from a burly cherry blank, I like the Chambers New England fowler but the barrel (.75 oct-rnd) I plan to use is too big for their stock.

Does anyone know where I can find a pattern that’s similar to the chambers fowler? Or maybe someone that has their New England fowler and would be willing to trace the stock shape for me?

I don't know if this fits your bill but I made a fowler from the Track Fowler plans. Mine has a D weight .72 barrel.

I’m thinking about using those or the Fusil plans if I can’t come up with something.

Do you have Grinslade's book? Take it down to an office supply store and use the photocopier to blow up your favorite fowler to something like lifesize. Then just draw your own plan tailored to the parts you are using.

I haven’t thought of that, I just ordered it so when it gets here I’ll do that, thanks!
