Theres a saying along the lines of a craftsmans work isn't about the work but how well they can cover their mistakes. Lol. Sorry, I don't remember how that saying goes. There are always mistakes around here. Thats how we learn.
DryRot/wormhole=character! I like your shop. I can always appreciate someone who will go the extra mile to save something old. That dye worked well. Vinegar/steel wool dissolved matches barnwood coloring well also. Keep it up my friend.
Found this video looking for ideas to display my flintlock long rifle. One thing I would suggest for anyone building similar is to rotate the wood grain on the supports 90 degrees, even though I do like the looks of the grain running the same way. This will make the outer arms stronger to keep them from breaking. If you want the grain running the same way like you have it, you're on the right track, just too bad you didn't use the drill press and support wood the first time!
Getting ready to build a couple of rifle racks and found this video while looking for ideas. This is the most entertaining of any of the videos that I looked at. I even got a good laugh mostly because I make mistakes all the time and usually spend more work time trying to correct the mistakes than I should have done for the whole project. Just fun to see I am not the only one. Ha. And thanks for sharing.
I have to say I like when you’re showing how you make your repairs when you make them errors on accidentally breaking the wood. And yes it worth using scrap wood first if you can find it. I don’t like seeing wood thrown away.
Lol, I liked this video, but not bc of the racks but bc you have a great work shop !! If it was me I would make the same design with some good home depot wood, lol...
Stikibits... I agree that a gun safe is safer but before we start calling people twits and irresponsible wankers did you ever think the racks maybe for antique guns that are disabled. I believe the irresponsible thing is that you jumped to conclusions! Also with your views on this matter why did you watch a video on how to build a gun rack in the first place? I don't want to jump to conclusions but did you maybe want to build one? Great video and craftsmanship!!!
You woodworkers are so easy going when you have an issue or break. I always have to remind myself to enjoy the process
Sometimes its hard to maintain your composure but in the end you just have to keep moving forward.
An honest woodworker, nice to see for a change.
I really loved to see how even the pro's have issues. and he showed how to fix those issues.

Good job man. I love your great attitude most of all. Keep up the good work.
Great vid. Refreshing to see things go wrong as it does in real life.
It happens to all of us from time to time. Lol.
"Well...this is an inconvenience." My new favorite phrase. :)

nice project. i like the repairs made now that is real wood working. i enjoy the challenges of working with wood like that.
Nice gun rack, great recovery on the support brackets. Old wood can be a pain to work with sometimes. really enjoyed this one

2x4 pin
my name is jeff
Scrolled until I found it. Someone had to say it
It's backwards. LOL. You'll see when he puts the rifle on it. Hahahahaha.
I believe its only backwards if its a right handed bolt action.

Yikes ,,,,how to make a little job into a huge project to hang one gun.
It definitely could have gone smoother. Lol. Still holding up though.
