Nice show David.  That sure is one pretty piece of Walnut.  Looked even better when worked and mounted up.

Yeah, that really is very cool. Beautiful job as usual Dave. Always enjoy seeing your final products. Just icing on the cake to see the progression from start to finish.

beautiful wood grain.  Fantastic actualy Love the burl on the hand grip.  Could not have been better.  The machine that just had the cutter sticking up could you tell me what that was?  I guess you shaped the hand grip part with it.  Great work.

That would be a drill press. I use it to do the inletting. The shaping is all done by hand using a Proxxon long neck angle grinder. I use no duplicator. All grips and forearms I have made are hand shaped.

Fantastic work.  You should be very  proud and should enjoy the TC when shooting it.  Ive always wanted to try that as I have some wood working abilities.  But not while its cold out Shops not heated well.  Looks great.
