    Haha @Sideshow yeah it’s the last point that you can ruin a perfectly good stock.

    I was asked once to checker a forend to go on a Holland and Holland single rifle. Man, it took me days to pluck up the courage to start cutting!

    @Hunter_Nick yeah my bum was going “Man hole cover………20cent piece”! Once you start it’s kind of therapeutic though

    I’d be too afraid to take that out on the hill.

    Outstanding work, look forward to seeing more of your work.

    Wow, that's amazing. I really like the trigger guard relief, very nice touch. I have made a few stocks over the years, and can say without a shadow of a doubt that I do not have the patience required for a superb job such as this. Nice job.
