For anyone interested, Turnbull Manufacturing is on the Science Channel tonight (Oct 17) at 9 Eastern on the How Its Made Program. should be a great show.

Watching it now.

Now I know what I've been doing wrong! Do the stock work first and then the metal work!

...the show will probably be repeated a couple times if you have missed seeing it--very worth watching.

I missed it, but it looks like it will be on again Sunday (10/19) at 4:30pm PST.

Thanks for the tip.

Too bad they didn't take time to show the color case hardening process.

What are you watching it on, i have Dish and dont see it being aired today, would love to see it, thinking of sending him a Winchester model 73 to restore, thanks.

Turnbull won't ever give up that! And I can't blame him. Probably spent gobs of time and $$$$$ figuring out what he's got. Most gunsmithing and restoration businesses are in business to make a living, not further the knowledge they've taken the time and money to develope so that every hobbiest in the country can duplicate work that feeds them and their familys, pays the morgage, pay the insurance, provide an education for their children and , maybe even retire some day.

With enough investigation there's enough information available for anyone to "get their feet wet" and learn how to CCH. All it takes is time and money!
