    Next thing I did was to clamp the two halves together and start fitting them to the action. Its a tricky bugger, tapering in and having a semi-circle part in the center.
    I just wanted to see how everything was fitting before I glued the two halves together.
    I mostly used files, but I've also got a vertical belt sander that is nice to remove material quickly and leave things flat.

    Once I was happy enough, I glued the two halves with lots of glue.
    Then I continued fitting it to the action, unfortunately I cocked up, I couldn't get the action to slide in nicely, and in a rush I took too much material off one side and created a taper.
    To fix it, I made two small wedges and glued one at the top and one at the bottom.

    That worked very well. Next I had to make a slight angle adjustment to the bolt hole as it was slightly too high, maybe 2mm. Then I removed the lever, trigger and trigger guard to start matching the action.
