This is a nicely figured piece of wood with very subtle, very fine fiddleback. The pistol grip cap is olive wood and blood wood.

This is a repeat post, but with current events, it bares repeating. What I would really like is to read the original Peace Accord, unfortunately I’m sure most of its contents has been redacted. My uncle, Major General L.L. Doan. … Continue reading →

I saw this tank on the news about the 250th Parade. I know the it’s 3rd Armored Division 32nd Regiment. It’s marked properly to be one of the command tanks. I would like to know if it’s it was the … Continue reading →

Hi- Clare here…. I put the wrong photos in… here are the right ones! Sorry about the brainfart!! The stock is Circassian Walnut. The pistol grip is Bloodwood and a different kind of Ebony. I added some photos of the … Continue reading →

Luckily, I got the duplication done before the shoulder went haywire. It was a fun piece of wood to work on. I’ve been trying to be ambidextrous, because if not, I’d be bored and nothing would get done. The bruise … Continue reading →

Clare here… Dad is okay-ish. Monday he was carrying mulch. Monday night he said his shoulder was a wee bit sore. Tuesday he was in the ER. Yesterday, he was released from the hospital. He tore his full thickness rotator … Continue reading →

It’s been 250 year since Paul Revere. I cannot confirm, nor deny that my relatives threw tea overboard.

Yes, this another Roadmaster. It’s the same pattern as the previous maple stock. The pistol grip is Goncalo Alves.. just for you Smith & Wesson fans. 🙂

I’ve tried to capture the dimensional shift in these photos. The fiddleback is really swell. This reminds of a Buick Roadmaster from the 1950’s, with it’s 4 vents. Like the car in Rainman. (For all you Nail Head fans: When … Continue reading →

We’ve used the word challenging before… and this was definitely in that category. The grain goes every other different direction from whence it’s supposed to. There’s a lot of block sanding to coerce the grain to go flat due to … Continue reading →

This was an amazing piece of wood to work on. This satin finish will continue to deepen and gently increase in shine.The buttplate is a bit different, I used bloodwood and Thuya burl. Thuya is also used on the pistol … Continue reading →

I did a bit of extra work on this one. The main gist is that I bedded it and added middle action screw. Also, I chambered and installed barrel. The buttplate will be the same wood as the pistol cap, … Continue reading →

It was a Friday. My roommate, Spaulding Gray (writer/author) and I started to hitchhike from Fryeburg Academy (Fryeburg, ME). We were picked up by a guy in a 1956 Ford sedan. The driver said he was going to Boston. Spaulding … Continue reading →

I tried to give this stock some Ozempic, but it didn’t work. The owner of this stock want to shave off some weight so he could shot Bisley. I added some vents, machined out the rail and put a few … Continue reading →

This trigger arrived, looked like it was in good shape, but wasn’t functioning properly. On closer inspection it was full of rust. I disassembled and cleaned it all out. Reassembled. Still not working. There is a pesky little spring that … Continue reading →

We had a whole smoked ham for Christmas Dinner. Also, Barney got a new scarf.. he thought it was Hermes, but he not on Nancy’s Christmas List. Barney helped open most of the gifts.

Vlad got 2nd place at the Arizona State 600 Yard Championships!

I finished this one this morning! The Thuya wood pistol ( with Ebony accent) cap has interesting image in it. Maybe it’s Casper the Friendly Ghost? Happy Veteran’s Day to all my fellow Vets.

This has 3 action screws including the recoil lug. The pistol cap is Thuya wood. I made it so it can be used with either a right of left handed action. And it’s a good day neighborhood.

Installing this action into wooden stock you need to put in a bedding block that you make out of Delrin and aluminium. You, also, need to make a clamp for a trigger extension.
