Track of the Wolf Bucks County rifle kit - Update #3

Interesting !!

I've noticed in your past videos that you have used red lipstick. I'll have to try this as I usually use colored chalk and sometimes, pencil lead. There were a few steps that went pretty fast and I will have to go back and review ... :)

Qustions;
1) When you hacksawed the breach plug, what steps do you take to try and stay squared?

2) What Anit-siez do you use of recommend?


Once again, thank you for your post and;
Be Safe !!!
 
What a great video on technique. I knew there were things that had to be done to fit a barrel properly to its stock channel and plug. But I just didn't know how to go about it. Or then again I needed a full blown machine shop in my basement to accomplish the tasks. (Which by any means I couldn't afford.) Well Mike. I do know now. I've been hesitant to buy any kit rifle and perhaps chance a screw up. But you Sir while watching your video gave me a little extra confidence "I can do that!! What He just did." Now I'm anxious to see that next video. Keep them video's coming Michael. The more I can pick up and learn. When that day comes to putting my chosen kit flint rifle together for the very first time. The easier it will be no doubt. Bonus: I'll have your video/s to fall back on if need be in TFLF thread library. That's a comforting thought. Thank you Mike & Seasons Greetings.

Hi Pahoo,

The tape keeps me square. I'm pretty anal about getting the tape line perfect. Then I cut slowly. If I stray I want to stray high and file down to the tape line. In this case, the cut went as well as I could want. I didn't have to file at all.

I used to use Phil Woods bicycle bearing grease, but lately I've been using choke tube grease as my anti sieze.
