Bubba Strikes Again/ Frank Strikes Back

[frankderrico]

This S'G' oval cut highwood stock came in a couple of weeks ago. My customer told me to see what I could do for it. It had two cracks on the right rail, one about 4" and the other about 1 1/2" It was varnished, sanded and the left rail was chisled out for a scope mount. Luckly the cartouches are still there. My before pics are in another camara with dead batteries. I'll get them up later. Step one was cleaning, step two was fixing the cracks. Step three was useing a doner stock to make a patch for the scope cutout. It was sanded sway backed for the scope mount on the left rail an 1/8". Step four was streightening up the chisled out portion to except the patch. Alot of hand work making the patch fit. Then glue and clamp. It's being reoiled now and is loooking good.
First pic should be the last pic.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend.....Frank
