winnie&bezza Posted December 28, 2015 Report Share Posted December 28, 2015 (edited) Afternoon all. Had a few hours on stock this morning and it didn't go too bad really but have to admit I was a teeny weeny bit out with the gauge hole but nothing serious. I didn't want to post same pics of blank as I have before but can't figure out how to select certain pics on photo bucket so I can only post pics of whole album.

winnie&bezza Posted December 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 Ok I'll be honest. I can't fault what you've done. It looks bang on Can't ask for more that that from a joiner but there's bits I would of done differently like left the forened 5mm longer as I'm going to cut it back on an angle so you will see a bit more of the air cylinder than I would of liked but it's minor really and got the air gauge hole more central but I haven't got a pillar drill which would of been easier. Cheers oowee and will do. Just wish I could have more time on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
team tractor Posted December 30, 2015 Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 I've seen many standard stocks with holes on the pee. Your making a one off and it's handmade . That makes it special Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winnie&bezza Posted December 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 Yeah your right there TT and if I'm happy with it then that's all that matters. Thing is that with me being fussy I know im going to keep doing things to it when I should just leave it alone. I'm thinking about letting in a diamond or that sort of shaped piece of darker wood over the air gauge so I can get the hole more central if you get my drift.
