I really enjoyed the video!! For the home gunsmith, this machine looks like it would be in the realm of something that could be done in a home shop. I would like to have seen more detail on assembly of the machine, but it looks pretty straight forward, and to see the actual process of making a barrel was very intersting!!

Very well thought out video, that was well produced. If you're new to mini machines, and their cleaning and setup, this is the video for you!! Proper setup is the key to accurate machine work, and this video can help!!

This DVD gives a step by step guide to proper shaping and grinding of lathe tools. There are also instructions for building a grinding jig to simplify the process. If you're not familiar with the process, this is the video for you!!

This video gives great step by step details on proper cutting of screw threads. With instructions on how to shape cutting tools, and formula's to guide you on cutting a proper standardized thread, or mating to something not so standard. As always Rudy gives explicit detail in his instructions. It also includes a lot of good advise on what not to do!!!

John is very knowledgable with this firearm, and takes you through a piece by piece breakdown of the fit and functions of this piece of history!! I had always wondered about the method of feeding disentegrating links through these weapons, and this video takes you through a very good explanation of its functions. Also included are setup, timing, and troubleshooting of this weapon, all of which are greatly detailed!! If it's not covered in this video, you probably don't need the information anyway!!

Video: Engraving

This is a great series for someone that is intested in engraving. It takes you through the basics with enough information to build the confidence needed to succeed!! Time well spent!!

Another great presentation from AGI!! Very detailed presentation for the home 'Smith' to produce controlled color in a variety of ways!! The presentation on metal prep is worth the price of admission ( and one of the most important steps in proper bluing )!!

Another great video from AGI. Mr. Dunlap's step-by-step instruction adds a great deal of understanding to this piece of history! If you have an M1, this is a great video for detailed stripping, cleaning, and reassembling this rifle! (The section on the M2 is interesting too!)

Another top quality video from AGI! This battle proven rifle is shown piece by piece with great detail. From it's basic operation to complete stripping, and even a detailed section on building you're own! If you have an interest in this rifle, you must see this video!

Still another top quality video from AGI!! This one contains full information on field stripping to complete detail stripping for refinishing of parts. Great tips on timing problems, and things to watch for during re-assembly. The use of cutaway guns give great detail of the fit/function of these great pieces of history!

Another great video from AGI. Providing a complete history to these pistols, to breaking them down, and proper cleaning, including instructions on what you should never do. These videos are a great way to learn how to properly work with these accurate little pistols!

AGI does it again! With a great bit of history, version identification, parts interchangablilty. If you have any interest in these fine pieces of history, this video is for you!

Another excellent video from AGI! It gives a very thorough coverage of the history, design and function of this fine subgun. As always they give complete detail stripping, cleaning and re-assembly instructions. If you had never seen on of these, by the end of the video, you will have a complete knowledge of every aspect of it's care and operation. The test firing sequence at the end with two Sterlings is worth the price of the video!

Another hit from AGI!! John Bush gives a very thorough instruction of building this rifle. From parts selection, to building different receivers (stamped vs cast)the information contained on this video is very helpful!! If you're contemplating building one of these, this video should be on you're required tool list!!

Once again another fine video from AGI!! These are a very cost effective little rifle, and if you run across a good deal on a used one, this video will show you how to properly break one down, and do a proper cleaning on it!! (Just what most used ones need to run effectively!!) If you have one of these rifles, you need to see this video!!

Great video on an alternative method for producing a nice quality AR-15 receiver. If you have one of the modular kits, you will benefit from this video. Demonstrations of how to assemble this kit is very thorough, and covers using a mill, or simple hand tools to complete this project!

I really enjoyed this video. Anodizing Aluminum seemed like a complex process from what I had read, but with this video, it seems very easy to do!! With the step by step instruction, and with included formula's in PDF on the disk, with a little patience, great results are just a few steps away.

Great tips on wringing the best accuracy out of a Remington action rifle!! This is not a beginners video, but has some great information that will still be helpful in high accuracy rifle shooting. Great tips on bedding, quality machine work, and new rifle break-in. I really enjoyed this video!!

Ron walks you through step by step how to build a very nice quality powder horn. Anyone with basic handyman skills is capable of producing a container to be proud of. On Disk 2 he also demonstrates the different tools that can be used to do a quality job of scrimshaw on you're new horn!! A little patience, and a lot of practice, you can turn out professional quality horns!!

Michael gives very detailed instruction on putting together 2 different types of moccasins, both well within the capability of the average craftsman!! I would have liked to have seen more information on traditional decoration, but otherwise was very happy with the instructions given on the video!!

Great video for learning about TIG welding!! I particularly liked the section on how to diagnose TIG welding problems. How things like oil, improper electrode adjustment, and improper amperage could affect the quality of the weld. This is filled with very useful basic instruction for the beginner, and I would recommend it highly to anyone that is just starting out!!

If your totally unfamiliar with sushi, and it's etiquette, this isn't a bad video. I was hoping to learn how to make these at home, but the instructor was going too fast to be able to see what he was doing. Great information otherwise tho!!

This is another great installment from the shop of the Late Great Dave Gingery!! If you have never been exposed to green sand casting this video will give you some basic steps to getting started... It wasn't detailed in developing or milling sand, or in pattern making, but for the basics of how a home made foundry operates, it has some good information in it!!
