Thanks MD.
I was considering something like that.
By the same token it would be a useful skill to learn.
Experts on utube make it look easy,
Might have another go at it. Will be a slow job.

Thanks.
I probably should have another go at it.
The other stock I tried to do had remnants of previous checkering which created extra challenges.
I have here another clean (no checkering) stock...

Haha, A bit above my pay grade
I have the tools here but loused up the last one I did.
Will get someone who knowes what their doing

Got a bit done on the weekend.
Ready for first coat oil.

Been there done that.
Invest in a trimmer/router. Less than $100 you wont look back.
Nice piece of wood btw

A bit of progress.
Pillars and bedding done, recoil pad on, grip cap fitted and most shaping done.

Thanks mate,
Will try and do it justice for ya.

Hows it guys.
