    Question on metal

    I have too much time on my hands first thing in the mornings. This question is for those with a serious knowledge of reactions. I understand Aqua and Vinegaroon and the effects on wood and sugar. I understand browning and gray finishes on metal. I think it's neat, the reaction of mustard on...

    Been at it again... Horning

    the past few weeks. Work slows down and finds me at the horn bench. Time to catch up with the custom horn orders. I only get the winter to do this. Once the farm wakes up I have to stop. Seeds, fruit trees, bees all command attention. These have been shipped out and more are in the works. Thank...

    New gear for a new season

    Hunting season that is. Stayed up late a couple of nights to work on some new horns. I don't really get the time for this until winter but I made myself a little time to get these out of my brain. No room in there to hold onto ideas till' winter. I realized recently that out of all the horns I...

    Underlug Staple

    I have a quick question. I'm not a metal worker, wood is my area of comfort. I have a 54 octagon barrel on the bench set up with three underlug staples for keys. I would like to set this barrel in the stock with pins, not keys. Its a SMR with a lollypop tang and I want to lesson the temptation...

    Horn and antler?

    I have been somewhat intrigued reading on occasion about the use of antler or bone on Southern Mtn. rifles. I have two in various stages on the bench right now. As I gaze at them I can almost see how it could work. Toe plate, muzzle cap, perhaps a cheek piece inlay. I think, anyway, that if it...

    Bean Box

    Most commercial Tennessee Bean patch boxes seem a little too large for the stock. Really hate to cover up all that curl with an overly long box. Rather than build my own, or modify one down 20% in size, where's a good place to pick up one smaller than the 7 3/8" that gets listed on most of our...
