Some Interesting Stock Work

[frankderrico]

This RMC stock came to "Frank's Stock Sickbay" after it had been run over by a car in a garage.
Well you know me, I took the challenge to try and give it a new life.
First came the clean up, then an assesment, and then start the repairs.
I have 26 pics of the step by step job. I thought I would start with these.
Hope you guys enjoy them.....Frank

Here are some more pictures of the project. The threaded brass pins were already in the stock, probably done while in service.....Frank

Now it's done!!
Well considering were it started, it turned out pretty good. It gave me a chance to try some things out and like anything else you have to practice if you're going to be good.
In the end it was a fun project.....Frank
