Great news. Nathans plasticine makes the blocking and damming easy. The drinking straws and threaded rod ( bolts with heads cut off) are a real key for when the metal work is lowered into the stock - the drinking straws sit up and keep the compound from running down the action screw holes and then they slide down with the metalwork through the holes in the stock when it is lowered. If you look at his vid on bedding the lee enfield there is some really good info that compliments the step by step vids.

PS I just used bolts that were a near enough fit that would finger tight screw into the action - no need for the correct thread
