Darn!  You stole my shop!  At least I am not the only one with a "shade tree" shop.  Those 2 bottles in the bag....is that epoxy?

The stock modification is looking good BTW.  On the fore end part of the stock... are those walnut pieces 'doweled'on with adhesive or adhesive  alone?

That's some woodworking skills you got there. A work of art to your use to be $99 AG. could be 3x+ than when bought. Does the  scope mount really hold with that AG?

Hey Timmy Instead of being a tuner why not become a stock maker? You would probably be one of only a few. I know that I would buy some stocks from you

But I just had to put her together to get an idead of what else to do. LOTS of sanding & shaping left but that will have to wait till I get back home from my Mom,s & Uncles in Alabama. Pics just dont do it justice. Its gonna be my first "Blonde"!! Tim. (http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg312/Timmyj1959/017-5.jpg)
