Restoration of Doublegun Stocks and Forends with Steve Wesbrook

This course teaches the proper procedures to repair and refinish the wood on double-barrel

shotguns. The instructor will guide the students through the complete process of

disassembly of the gun into major components, removing old finish, drawing out damaging

petroleum-based oils, sanding and steaming out dents and scratches, making necessary

repairs, cleaning out old checking, applying a hand-rubbed stock-oil finish, and refitting the

metal parts into the wood. The instructor will demonstrate the process at each step and

assist the students on their individual projects. Using pictures of damaged stocks and

forends, the instructor will show students the repair process for the most common problems

encountered with the wood on vintage double shotguns. He will thereafter assist students

in the repair of the specific problems with their guns.
