Thread: New stock

Thanks all. All of the scales in my house are broken so I can't weigh it - I'm hoping it'll be around a kilo. I'll confirm once I get my hands on some real scales though!
CAM is all done within Fusion 360, and the router runs Mach3
The router was built by the guy I bought it off. I paid $900, but have had to fix & replace some bits (including the spindle and VFD) which pushes the cost up. However the last stock I got cut by a pro outfit nearly cost my $900 so I'm happy with the outcome!

I'd love to make more for other people. This requires some more refinement of the process - I think I have a way to do it with more setups but better accuracy (and less hand finishing), so will be making another for my .22 to test this.
I the cost to someone else would almost certainly be north of $1k to make it worth my time, which is pretty steep really.

Carbon fibre is definitely an option, I need to learn more about the process but I think it could be done DIY with machining a two sided bladder mold. That definitely requires more thinking about how to mount the action though (likely aluminium bedding block) which adds more complexity.

Thanks for all the kind comments
