Hershel House spent his life in Woodbury, Kentucky — building rifles, forging knives, and keeping the crafts of the American frontier alive. The Hershel House Woodbury School Foundation carries that forward, teaching the next generation of builders the same hand skills that defined his life.

Stocked in burl maple, this flintlock was likely made in the region of Florence, Italy. It bears the "Medici mark" on the barrel indicating it was part of the Medici family arms collection. A construction date of 1710-1720 seems likely. A very fine and attractive piece.
Needed a new tumbler as threads got damaged in disassembly
Needed a new tumbler as threads got damaged in disassembly, my fault. Tumbler dropped in and did not need any refinements and is working perfectly, very quality lock and components.
this stuff worked better than expected.
no heating the barrel.
good, even application.
make sure you have a baking soda solution ready to wash the barrel and stop the rusting process and gun oil to coat the barrel.
