I display my work at and attend the Contemporary Longrifle Association show in Lexington, Kentucky and the National Matches of the National Muzzleloading Rifle Association at Friendship Indiana.
I am always interested in considering projects of unusual merit including everything from folk art to high art.
Having reached a point in my career where a limited amount of time remains to accomplish my goals, there are many interesting projects that for one reason or another I have not been able to undertake. I have decided that at least for the foreseeable future I won't be able to accept general orders, but these special projects will be for sale as I complete them. Many of these pieces are listed in the section on current and future projects.
If you are interested in acquiring a piece of my work and one of these projects is of interest to you, I can supply an approximate completion date. I also maintain a list of those who would like to be contacted as pieces become available.
My recent experience using this approach has shown that I produce a finer more interesting piece when the project can evolve as a natural part of the design and construction process.
Excise tax information:
The Pittman- Robinson act of 1937.
This federal law mandates an excise tax on sporting goods related to hunting and fishing including firearms, archery and fishing equipment. Many arms projects require a 10% tax on pistols and an 11% tax on long guns.
While none of us like paying taxes, at least this one goes for the worthy cause ofsupporting wildlife and habitat.
