Robertson F-Class Stock – Custom Paint

Posted on July 18, 2021 by Doan

I received this stock and it was covered with faux carbon fiber tape. While taping the tape off I discovered it was previous painted Lapua Blue. It had a drop port in it. I had to fill where the trigger was. Also, cut the cheekpiece off and filled in that area. I did this so the owner could have an adjustable cheekpiece and buttplate. Bedded it for a Stolle Panda F-Class action.

The paint job on this brought me back to when I painted motorcycle tanks. The new red color is similar to the Soul Red on the new Mazadas. It involves a number of different base coats. Then the metallic coast and a clear coat.

Fiddleback American Walnut FTR Stock for a Stiller TAK 30 Action

Posted on June 9, 2021 by Doan

This action has the same footprint as a Remington. I made the bedding block, so that the two action can be used interchangeably.

This rifle can be used with a sling or as a FTR rifle.

Rosewood Grips for Eliseo / AR15’s / Tubb Rifles

Posted on May 21, 2021 by Doan

This grip was made from a block of Dalbergia Maritima. It is extreme dense, but easy to cut on the band saw. Works well with a #50 wood rasp and files. It’s sands well, but the dust sticks to everything and stains your hands. When finished with a satin finished it reminds me of a plum.

This is a highly figured piece of English Walnut with burls and flowers. Along the bottom of the stock there’s a burl/flower that looks like an owl and one side looks like the Sandia Mountains.

New Grip Design for Tube Guns and AR-15s

Posted on December 30, 2020 by Doan

I’ve changed the design to incorporate a “grip” area for a straight up hand position, still allowing for thumb place on the other side of the grip.

American Walnut F-Class Stock with Figured English & Claro Walnut Inlay on Forend

Posted on November 30, 2020 by Doan

The owner has 3 actions with the same barrel block mounting system. He wanted to be able to use one stock. I built a bedding system that would accomplish this task. The two pieces of Claro Walnut on the forend are mirror copies. It’s low profile.

Left Handed American Walnut Stock for a Walthers KK 500

Posted on November 20, 2020 by Doan

This action has been really fun to work on. I think I’ve done 5 of these KK500 retrofits. Seeings how this action is meant to go in a metal stock, there’s quite a few modifications and measurements needed to make the conversion for a wood stock. This includes making a bedding block from aluminum and Delrin.

If I were starting over in the Smallbore world, I’d get this action… instead of my old model 37 with a Wright Allen trigger.
