Default Building a Fusil-de-Chasse

A little while ago I posted a few You Tube videos of building a fusil-de-chasse that I recently finished. Here are parts 4 and 5 of the same series. More to come later. Hope that you enjoy it.

Glad to hear that you like it. I think that I got a playlist set up. Not sure though. This is the first time that I ever tried You Tube. I guess I am not much of a computer nerd. Hardest thing about all of this was figuring out the stupid editing software. I got the Adobe Premiere Pro program for that. The reviews said that it is easy to use. I'm not too sure about that! I have no idea what 90% of the stuff is on there. Took about a month to figure out how to turn video from the camera into something that I could put on You Tube. I will figure out all the fancy stuff on there eventually.

The gun and video is all finished. I will be putting a new one on You Tube every tuesday and friday.

It was fun doing the video. I will start building a Tennessee rifle next month and do video on that also. I have been ordered to not build any more guns until then. Someone seems to think I spend too much time in the workshop.

Went to see what you were building and the iPad won’t open it. The forum won’t recognize the site or says its unofficial. Snubby is enjoying it, I’m jealous. Larry

Go direct to You Tube website. Do a search on "Bill Raby" or "fusil-de-chasse build". You should be able to watch it from there.
