Very nice job ....

We like to have a bit of fun around here and so the use of the emotes is very important, because sometimes it is hard to see the intent in a written word...  Have a great time here and enjoy yourself!  Oh BTW your promotion was based on the amount of countable posts you have created... keep up the posting and you will be right up there with Hanshi soon enough...

You did splendid work on that rifle and it's a beauty!  I like it and half-stocks aren't really my favorites.  The wood/barrel finish is superb.  My gun-dream is to tackle a Kibler SMR kit.  More realistically, though, I'll likely eventually try a Traditions kit or similar. 

Remember: we do have a woodshed - been, ahem! there and saw for myself.  Daddy will spank, though he denies it.     But you are now a BP addict and this is just the beginning.

Thank you all for the kind words. I am happy the way it turned out (but it hasn't passed the field test yet  ). It is pleasing to my eye. Several flaws that I hope to correct on the next one by drawing it out on paper. I guess it is better to start with a plan  ! A lot to learn

Plans and drawings just seem to get in the way for me. Every thing I have built is trial and error, mostly error. Eventually I get it right, sometimes.
