Some timber


Some drawing on some timber


Some roughing out of the timber before putting on the mill


More to come...

That certainly qualifies as "starting with a clean slate"

Get into it and post lots of pics please.

Bloody near two days and no additions come we are waiting.

That's it! He's finished!

Finished- it ain't finished until it has a nail driven into it.

Well actually it was being made with a grinder and all- it does look a bit like that fence post stock that's buried away in the old archives.

Looking at his grinder, he's waiting for new discs at Bunnings.

I am actually. They only had 1 of the 40 grit discs left the wankers. No the mrs spat out bub number 2 today. Staying at home making stocks wasnt worth the risk. Will get onto it more this week hopefully.

Congratulations!

Hope mum and bub are doing well.......

Yeah, congratulations of the bub mate. Hope all is going well with the mrs and young'un.

Is that laminated?

Congrats on the new addition mate, hope it all goes well for you all.

Passable excuse Congrats on the arrival.

Thank fellas. Yes its laminate- I wont risk solid timber on a competition gun for fear of it warping and mucking about with bedding/tune.

Righto two months later....

Went to Wardys place the other day and spent some time milling surfaces flat and level. Today i got back onto it with the grinder to rough out shapes from the butt and moving forward. Need to get back to his and mill a bit more on it. The hardest bit is trying to get the grip section sorted out in straight lines. A CNC lathe with a cord plugged into my head would be alot quicker. When the action arrives from USA I can do the action area a bit quicker.

And yes thats my Peppa Pig placemat.... caught
