Product Description
When the weather is bad or it's the off-season, when their favorite sports are ruled out for whatever reason, many outdoorsmen turn their attention to making and repairing the staples of their sports. Whether it is a new gun stock, a specialized fishing lure, a duck or goose decoy, a backpack, or even a canoe, there is both pleasure and economy in fashioning it yourself. The pleasure is not only in the craftsmanship, but in actually using the gear in the field. In THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO MAKING OUTDOOR GEAR AND ACCESSORIES, Monte Burch has included instructions, diagrams, and photographs for a variety of projects of interest to outdoorsmen, including guns and gun accessories, knives, archery tackle, bird and animal calls, waterfowl blinds of various sorts, tents, quail return pens, waterproof camera boxes, shooting benches, and gun and fishing tackle cabinets. Anyone with a rudimentary grasp of carpentry and handcrafting will find something here to his taste. Whether simply taking a couple of pieces of yardstick, a rubber band, and some household tape to make a varmint call, constructing a complicated recurve bow from a kit, or installing a fiberglass deck on a johnboat, there is something here for every outdoorsman who wants to say of a piece of sporting equipment: "I made it myself."
From the Back Cover
Making your own outdoor equipment is one of the most enjoyable indoor activities, and has many advantages. First, of course, you can make items for much less cost than buying them. You can also custom make items so they fit your particular needs and activities. Handmade articles are treasured and are often handed down from generation to generation. Perhaps most important of all, however, is the satisfaction of hunting or fishing with a piece of equipment you have made yourself, knowing that it is a quality item that will last a long time. The projects in this book range from the simple to the complex. Included within these pages, you will find hands-on information on: restocking guns; muzzleloaders and accessories; knives and accessories; archery tackle; fishing rods; fishing lures and tackle; sportsmen's storage and workbenches; decoys; bird and animal calls; blinds; tents and shelters; backpacks, frames, and rucksacks; moccasins and other leather crafting; deer hunting stands and houses; shooting tables; floating fish boxes; and much more.
