Well Folks,,, it has been OVERWHEALMINGLY more complex than I EVER imagined to get to this point. But,,, I produced my VERY FIRST one off stock of my own design from my duplicator machine. (http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif)While I will be refining some of the lines on my master/pattern a little more,,, I am pretty happy with 001!!(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif)I have learned more in the last 48 hrs than in many previous weeks!! I am also getting better at hand shaping my patterns & using less & less "Bondo" on them now!! Diana 34 #001 is not for sale Folks. The pics just do NOT do this stock justice I promise. This stock came out great!! This one is going to Me Pops.(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif)Gene has done SO MUCH for me that even though this one aint perfect,,,, It needs to be his. I promise you will LOVE it Buddy,,,,,,, it BLOWS AWAY all the others I have done for you!! WORD!!(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif) Mr Bob,,,,,, I will be back on your Marauder 001 stock next week. It is TRULY a ONE OF A KIND!! I will NOT be duplicating it. Please dont feel slighted because it has been "shelved". You will be thankfull in the long run as I did not want to mess it up & am feeling MUCH more confident in my finish shaping skills now!!(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-innocent.gif)Again I want to thank all that have supported me thruout this endevor,,, thank you for your support. Tim. PS,,,,,,, Tommy & "J',,,,, I got you guys covered. You too Roger!!(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif)(http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg312/Timmyj1959/019-11.jpg)

Thanks Tommy. I know your stock has been "Shelved" as well as others Buddy. Trust me,,, in the long run you will be thankfull I took some time to familurize myself with the machine & refine my shaping skills! (http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif)I got Ya covered Buddy!! I have WAY TOO much time invested in your new stock to mess it up.(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-surprised.gif)With the check you just sent me I can now get the router bits I need to "Dive In"!!(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif)Thanks Buddy!! Not only can I get the bits I need,,,,,,, that check allowed me to get Xmas cards for my Family. Thanks Tommy. Timbo.

Thanks Chris Buddy!! Update: I worked all day again today on my new Discovery Master/Pattern. For those that dont know, Chris ("Fatback") loaned me his Discovery to duplicate the inletting & develop a new stock. As it turned out the factory inletting on his particular stock was horible. Thus I did my own machine inletting. However,,,, I could not have gotten as close as I am now without having Chris,s Disco action here on hand.(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif)THANKS Buddy!! I should have my new Master/Pattern ready to start duplicating in the next day or so. This one is gonna be "Ambi". It takes FOREVER to get an Ambidextreous stock perfect!!(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-surprised.gif)This one is gonna have the crisp monte carlo lines just like Air Arms!!(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-innocent.gif)(I copyed it!!) LOL!! You will be getting 003 Chris,,,, your blank has your name on it!! Sorry Buddy,,,,,,"Mr Bob" gets 001 & Me "Pops" (Gene) gets 002!!(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif)Thanks Chris. Now,,,, if my shipment of Walnut would just get here I could start duplicating some Diana 34 stocks??(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-money-mouth.gif)LOL!! Timbo.

Lookin' gud. Yeah Timmy.... I'm planning to come down with Gene. Can't trust him to make that drive by himself. Gitten there would be no problem for him (givng him a couple of days...lol...) but gittn' back might be something else. Throw some hot rocks under the beds....lol...

Wow Tim! Sure looks better than anything I"ve seen come out of a box! Congrats - Nice to see your hard work through stress paying off :) Hopefully it gets easier from here..
