Practice Perfect!

These Quaker Stocks are a perfect way to test out incise and relief carvings. Both in practice and also in design.
Kibler Longrifles supplied me with outstanding representation of the exact wood suppled with the kits I ordered. This way I could get a true feeling of working with curly Maple in a no-risk experience. I highly recommend purchasing a Quaker Stock especially if you’re a novice carver.
I also tested the stain and finish I intended to use. The stock ended up looking so good, I’m using it as a wall hanger!

Wonderful Practice Piece

As the description states, it's a scrap piece of stock, but the cost to opportunity ratio for the price is outstanding.

I am using this piece to test various carving techniques and amount/layers of stains and finishes.

I would highly recommend purchasing a practice piece for testing if you have questions about the stock you are finishing.

Too pretty

My Quaker stock is so nice I can’t bring myself to waste it on practice carving. It wants to be a halfstock rifle.

A learning tool with bonus potential

I bought the carved Woodsrunner version of the Quaker practice carving stock primarily to learn about stock carving from a physical model rather than photographs, second to try finishing walnut with bone black and linseed oil, and third – as a potential bonus – to see if I could use it to make a half-stocked variant from my existing Woodsrunner kit.

If you’re thinking of going the half-stock route you should keep your expectations realistic: these are sold as cut-down practice pieces precisely because they don’t meet Jim’s standards. Mine had chipping and gouging, perhaps from an errant CNC tool. The ramrod hole had not yet been drilled and there was, of course, no patchbox lid.

Happily, the important bits from my existing kit fit perfectly and with some filing and sanding and drilling I’m on my way to making a bonus half-stock for my Woodsrunner. Even if I couldn’t, this would still be worth the money as a learning and practice piece.

Shipping

Liquid Shipping

Liquids will not ship in the kit box. There are different regulations that apply to the chemicals that we sell and they will need to ship ground, when the kits will ship USPS Priority Mail. Plus, it would really stink if a liquid were to leak on your beautiful new kit!

Order tracking

You will receive tracking information when your item ships. For kits, you will be contacted before shipment and after shipment so there is no need to worry about a kit box shipping when you are out of town. All other packages will ship when available and you will be emailed a tracking link.

Get in touch

If you have questions, feel free to email us at info@kiblerslongrifles.com or give us a call at 330-551-5844. Even if you have to leave a message, we promise to get back with you right away. Bree can answer most questions and she will be sure to ask Jim when needed.
