Kempton Gunmaker's Fair

Hi Guys,
I will be at the fair and presenting 2 seminars. The first covers the chronological list of tasks needed to build any muzzleloading gun. In other words, when to do what. The second seminar is how to build a historically correct Brown Bess. I will also do a demo at the ALR venue on how to dovetail and/or solder sights and lugs on octagon and round barrels. Hope to see you there and say hi to me and my border collie, Willow, if you get the chance.

I think I'll be there on Friday. @dave_person Do you know when you are presenting? I live close by and could stop back for part of Saturday.

BJ Habermahl and I do the gun making sequence seminar at 9:00 on Friday. We are the first seminar in the fair. I will do the lug and sight inletting demo at 9:00 on Saturday in the ALR demo area next to the seminar space. Finally, I will give the seminar on making Brown Bess at 10:30 on Saturday. I have a full 90 minutes for that seminar and I will cover a lot of details. If you have any ambitions to build or own a Brown Bess, this seminar will be very useful.
