Well committed now ! Just cut a chunk of stock out ! Now need to give a good coat of looking at, will measure what's needed for pillars & bases etc , machine them up , tempted to put a bed of devcon inbetween to achieve the perfect fit inbetween faces ! Be an ongoing project next few weeks, might go tits up yet!

Right , sunday morning, been in the garage rooting , got 8mm stainless for the pillars , some 25mm ally round for the stock bosses , aircraft grade , ordered some stainless grub screws& inserts for the pillar locking , so will have to wait for the post ! In the meantime will machine up the bosses & pillars, going to insert stainless nuts in the actual cheek piece to screw pillars in , so in the future can customize to fit , lastly work out pillar location in the stock for bolt removal! So when get bits sorted will post a picture or two.

When bits arrive be a good 40mm chopped off the height , got to remember drone sits high , needs height for cheek weld, looks high cause of the lump missing out of the stock , be ok when done...

We’re just pulling your leg 🤣

Its certainly easier to cut something an inch shorter than add a millimetre back on.

Inserts & grub screws arrived, just fitted  & glued up , all marine grade stainless, another couple coats of stain , then seal with semi gloss laquer, fit the action & drone , work out perfect height/ cheek weld and adjust pillars to suit .

Ok🤣🤣🤣 try it in the field , bow to peer pressure, and then modify pillars ......

Boo, is the threaded bar M8? I deal with steel fabricators quite frequently, if you are prepared to wait I’ll get you a couple of freebies and drop them off as a thank you for the priest. 

Will 150mm stainless steel 8mm Ø round bar be enough to mount your telescope properly? 😜

oh marsh is rammed with widgeon & mallard ! Plus about 600 punks still there 😉

Only 6 months to wait to get back at them. John Graham ended the season early due to lockdown restrictions being increasingly complicated for a club with land that crosses two states, three police forces and has members across the country. The right call IMO.
