Rex, So many lost arts in our new world. Taking the time to pass one of these crafts along is a testament as to who you are and your value on true art. Life's greatest lessons are often at the feet of our seasoned citizens.
BTW Awesome Video,s I use your ballistic tables printed with a laser printer on write in the rain paper inside one of those arm band things Quarter backs use.
Fascinating series. I would like to see a cracked stock repair, as the landlady has a side by side 12 gauge with a crack through the comb.. One interesting bit, the gauge said Snohomish, WA.. That's less than 20 miles from my front door..
Unfortunately you can no longer obtain these tools as they have been deemed evil and unnecessary by gun control advocates . . 😉 But seriously I don't know if you can find them without going online .. amazing work he's doing .
Beautiful, one of a kind Craftsmanship. Apparently Kurt does work for cookies. As per Stock refinishing video. Wonder what he would do for a pan of Brownies and Mint Fudge. Altho, I think there would have to be quite a few pans plus a little spending money in there also. None of my business, I am wondering, along with the rest of us, how much this particular job would cost. As a matter on interest. I am far from an Artist. Maybe the odd Stick man drawing.
Good videos with great information...hate the music, sometimes it pushes being a little too loud overlapping him talking - those times its just distracting.
Hi Buddy. Enjoying all of you videos. Very informative. Question for you if you don't mind. I am in the process of refinishing the stock on my 1964 Model 70 Winchester 270. I used a bit of paint remover, sandpaper and elbow grease to remove some also. Using a softer bristle brush, I was able to get in and scrub the Checkering with remover. Wasn't able to remove as much as I would have liked. I will be using Birchwood Casey oil and Walnut stain later, as the stocks were a lighter brown that I didn't care for. Is there a small Checkering tool or another type of tool that I could use lightly to run down the Checkering Lines that might remove a bit more of the last stain. Pretty sure the deeper Walnut stain will go over this but just asking for the proper way to go about this. If you pick this message up, tashton@accesscomm.ca Thanks for the help on this one.

That's pretty awesome. He must be such a patient person. Does he take orders?
Yes, sir. Feel free to contact him at kurtscheckering@gmail.com

Does anyone else think the intro is very similar to Alice' N Chains " Down in a Hole?"
