    I really cannot remember what wood Ken used but it was not a common one, he kept it for a special project and decided to do up his Lee and this is the end result, Ken has been a stock maker for 40+ years and followed his Dad who was one as well. I did try and buy that from him but sadly failed. He did the draws on my T in such a way they will never wear out he manufactured a block up out of aircraft grade aluminium and set and pinned it in place and I will be dead and ashed before my T leaves my grasp and Ken was the only stock maker in Perth I would trust with such a job. (You cannot tell the mod unless you strip the bottom wood off the action)

    I am happy to share something with the crew here of a true master craftsman as you can imagine a shapeless piece of wood turned into the fine piece you see here.
