Where does the time go? It’s been a month since I posted a new video, during that time I have done all the same work to the Maple stocked rifle as I have the Walnut rifle. And now I am busy shaping the two stocks to their proper dimensions. The weekly updates should resume for a while now until I get into the final finish work.

This week I finished nearly all the inletting, the Trigger Plate, Forearm Entry Pipe, Triggerguard and Buttplate. I also drilled and tapped for the Tang Bolt and Lock Bolt. All the screws are temporary at this point and will be replaced with finished screws later. I’ll be putting this one aside for a little while and working on the other one to get it caught up to the same point before I start doing the stock shaping, so it will be a few weeks before there is another update.

I spent most of this week inletting the Locks. I also took the time to clean up the ramrod channel and make sure that a ramrod will fit properly.

I started the week by drilling the Ramrod hole through the stock, then I proceeded to inlet the tang and finished the week by Micro-Bedding the Tang, Barrels and end grain.

I was away from my work bench for a few days this week, it’s that time of year when certain farm chores have to be done, like burning the brush piles from all the trees that got hit during the winter storms and fertilizing the hay meadows so we have feed for our livestock next winter. I did manage to get the barrel fully inlet on this rifle though.

This week I made the Forearm Entry Pipes, the Front Sight with flip up Night sight and started the lay-out for the stock.
