Thread: Rifle stock

Coming along really well.

Needs a fair bit more work on the grip but is looking ok

So this is as far as I think I can go atm while I wait for the router bits to arrive then can start shaping the front if I don't bugger it up. The jarra grip cap isn't quite how I wanted it to look like but I fucked it up when I glued it on so had to make it stick out far like it is.

I will post that tool down on Monday Toby. You will have to put a plug on it yourself as I cant be flucked

Shes looking good mate

Next job tidy the friggen shed dude

Bench is tidier then when I started thank you very much

Clean the whole friggen shed with Uncle Jack but don't help him

No one wants to help uncle jack

what do you guys think about the step on the cheek rest? Im not sure if I like it or if it'd be nice without it.

If it was me, then I would loose the edge and champher the shhoulder of the cheek piece into the main stock.

Make the cheek piece to suit your scope hight!!!,
I'd leave the cheek piece higher and cut it down once the scope is in place, you'll shoot better.

Nice work, keep it up!

It seems high when I put my head on it. Though without a scope to look through it's hard to say. I was thinking of getting some iron sights put on it and cutting the barrel a little.

Leave it as it is, usually found done Ike this on more expensive pieces, I like!

Do you think 240 would be far enough to sand or should I get smoother? I brought what I thought was one sheet turns out I have 2 of the smoothest I paper I could find at itm which was 240.

Scored me a steel for 10 bucks in the bargain bin, same bin I got my main hunting knife from a few years ago.
