lots of muzzleloader building dvd's out there. in all reality it's just concepts, and the platform isn't really the important part. your inletting, inlaying, wood to metal finish, glass bedding, fit and finish are the important things you need to learn and there are a lot of videos out there that will teach you just that, even a lot on youtube. My advice is, GO SLOW, use a blacking agent, go slow, take breaks and don't be in a rush. My average flintlock build takes a min of 120 hours, could go up to 200.
