• <H3>     Toad Hall Rifleshop and the Yeller Tom Cat Forge are located amid the rolling and fertile fields of central Iowa. We fondly call this part of Iowa, “Corn Patch”.   Yes, I’ve built almost 400 muzzle loaders over the past 40 years, but if you’re seeking information on building a muzzle loader, you’ll need to go elsewhere.  Now if you’re looking for information regarding my Toad Hall Rifleshop style/methods of barrel forging, boring, reaming, and rifling a muzzle loader barrel all by hand and with no electricity what-so-ever, you’ve come to the right place.  So, when it comes to rifling by my instructions and benches….well….
• <H3> 
• <H2>                  “If you have questions, I have answers.”
• <H3>      I’ve rifled well over 130 barrels on my machines by hand over the years, so I believe I know what side’s up.  Who else can say they’ve rifled that many by hand on wooden benches?
• <H3>      I’m long RETIRED from custom muzzle loading rifle building, but still like to mess around with my wooden riflers and boring benches. The site’s focus is now mainly concerned with hand rifling operations. The “how to build’em” websites are a dime a dozen, so find one you think will suit you.  This website will be periodically revised and updated in an effort to share my understanding of the arts & mysteries of my style of rifling and it’s related facets. Caveat: I often type in my “Iowegian” dialect….just like I talk! For you folks in Scandinavia, there are a few pages or articles skrevet i Dansk og Norsk.
• <H3>      You’ll find that several of the subjects listed above will have more than one page for you to check out. Go ahead and explore the site. Lots’a copyrighted photos for you to take a look at. Just “click” on any photo to get an enlarged view unless the photo is full size already.. There are some “Big Honkin’ “ pages on this site covering 40 years of my experience, so please be patient if some of the pages load slowly. Often there are more photos & videos per page than what the program recommends. BUT….the wait will be worth it. The site will be updated on an irregular basis…like when I get around to it, but if the site ain’t working correctly or the articles not helpful, drop me a line and let me know, please.  One piece of free advice for you, my personal motto as a gun builder, and you can quote me:
• <H2> “Be known for the rifles YOU make.  Not for copies of dead men’s guns!”
• <H3> —Steve Bookout, Master of the shop
• <H3> “In a few more decades all the mountain rifle smiths will have passed on to the better world, and they will be only a memory like the pioneer, the buffalo and passenger pigeon, and the world will have lost more of the old-time geniuses.” Capt. Ned Roberts

• <H3> NOTE:  3000 copies of the world famous rifling book, A Wooden Iowa Rifling Bench, are now sold out and it’s time to call it a day.  It’s not to be reprinted (unless someone purchases the rights to do so).  But, a very few copies can still be found at Dixie or Track of the Wolf.  
• <H3> The APV companion video is still available while supplies last.  
• <H3> Notes From a Small Iowa Rifleshop & Blacksmithing Practice DVDs are almost gone, too!  Don’t procrastinate, fellers.
• <H3> 
• <H2> For a limited time, I have something for you smithies out there.  Has it’s own page, too.  Check out Blacksmith Practice!
• <H3> Just posted a new page about a new DVD I am making available to you for a limited time.  This is BLACKSMITHING PRACTICE.  Blacksmithing as taught by Uncle Sam back in 1939! I ain’t gonna write a whole bunch about it because the title says it ALL.  No B.S. here, fellers. 
• <H1> ******
• <H3> Jim Curlee from up to Pine Island, Minnesota just traded me some old Iowa plates.  Yep, I’ve lots of Iowa plates, but not one from 1960!  Thanks, Jim!
• <H3> You have a plate you want to trade?  Let me know.  The old blacksmith shop could use a little more class.
• <H3> 
• <H1> ******
• <H1> It’s back!!
• <H3> This very popular little book is back in print–but on CD or DVD!!  It has it’s own page listed on the menu, so if you’ve a hankerin’ for a copy, git’em while they’re hot!
• <H2> The rifling FAQs are still being answered and posted. If you’re building one of my rifling benches, read through them and see if you can pick up a couple of pointers.
• <H1> ******
• <H3> A recent American Rifleman TV program features a segment covering the Kentucky Rifle. Featured are the three House brothers, Hershel, Frank, & John, displaying some of their craft and the all hand-crafted rifle they made for the CLA. It’s a beautiful example of their “Woodbury School” style of long rifle. There are a couple of scenes of brother Frank using one of my Toad Hall riflers to rifle that barrel! I do feel honored.
• <H2> Always Wanted: I’ve been studying articles about, and the letters & articles written by, the late Hacker Martin for several years now. There’s quite a bit of material in my file from about 1940 to date, but am always on the lookout for other paper and artifacts that I do not have. Please contact me if you have something that may be of interest to me.
