Adding Carved Detail to your Longrifle Patchbox

In this video, we step into the classroom as Mike Brooks and Wayne Estes teach students how to assemble their own Kibler Longrifle Kits.

In this video, we see as Mike walks two different students through adding detail to their wooden patch box lids.

All these techniques are very traditional, using traditional tools the way longrifle builders have for generations here in the United States.
