Traditions Kentucky Rifle kit

Next time some one puts one of these together it would be great if they posted a step by step tutorial with lots of pics.
Take any intimidation factor away from us less experienced builders.

I have built a Kentucky pistol kit (percussion) and that was fun. Taken deer with my percussion Hawken. It is a Cabelas short barrel rifle. I really need to take a deer with a flinter. The traditions Kentucky kit is my best option at this point and am scouring the earth for tips.

Thanks for listening.

I built one when I was 12 years old. Not a hard project, bout the same as the pistol. Used a large grille to heat the barrel for browning. I'd likely do better today and am considering same. HOWEVER I just learned I can buy a new 1-66 barrel for my Tennessee that came with of all unheard of things a 1-32 barrel. So I'm gonna get it and then start the piggy bank build up again.

I have now got my rifle together, and can not wait to put powder in it. This was my first kit and enjoyed putting it together,I can not wait to start another one.
