Thank you for your interest in our DVDs which are intended to educate, instruct and entertain all who are interested in American pioneer crafts.  We feature some of the best-known craftsmen and educators to include Mark A. Baker, Hershel and Frank House, Wallace Gusler, Mike Miller and Mark Silver.  We have titles for beginners to professional makers with even more planned for the future.

 

We have simplified our website to make it more user friendly.  Should you have any questions please call or email us.  We are a two-person operation, so if we are not here when y ou call, please leave a message and we will return  your call.

 

We are very security conscious and therefore do not recommend using email to send us credit card numbers.  The easiest way to order is check the titles for what interest you and call us.  Use our order form as a guide, or fill it out and mail or fax it to us.  We do not keep customer history and shred all credit card information about once a week.

Your purchase directly contributes to preserving certain positive aspects of our heritage and directly helps the featured artisans.  They receive a direct commission from the sales.  We certainly appreciate our customers, and hope you enjoy our efforts to promote the Preservation of the American Pioneer Crafts series.

In production and future projects

  1. Long Hunter Series Volume Five with Mark A. Baker (very tentative schedule for release in the fall of 2012). Approximately 80% of this project is taped. We had to reshoot much of the video when HD format cameras became available and the picture quality was so much better.  We hope it was worth the extra wait. Gallery p.2

  2. Making A Hand-Forged Flint Lock with Mike Miller.  Mike forges and files the lock for a fine rifle using hand tools in an 18th century manner.  This project is 100% taped and in the queue for editing.  No tentative release date.  Gallery p.1

  3. Inletting a Gun Barrel by hand with Mark Silver

  4. The Colonial Frontier Hunting Shirt with Wallace Gusler and Eve Otmer  Gallery p.1
