Members Mulesaw Posted July 8 Members Report Posted July 8 Looking really good. I like that that the rivets have some texture. That is a nice touch. Also the creasing on the top part of the strap (the part with the rivets) looks really fine and consistent. Brgds Jonas Quote

I figured the "fancy" Chicago screws added a bit of flair rather than just plain ones. Thank you. Quote
Contributing Member fredk Posted July 8 Contributing Member Report Posted July 8 Thats a nice bit of tooling But, what ruins the look for me is that short strap coming over the top and almost blocking out one leaf, leaving a hint of it Quote Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..

I just followed the pattern I'll probably make my own changes along the way at some point lol Quote
Members bsshog40 Posted July 9 Members Report Posted July 9 That is really nice! If I may ask, where did you get the pattern for that. I'd love to make one for one of my rifles. Quote

CFM chuck123wapati Posted Thursday at 11:25 AM CFM Report Posted Thursday at 11:25 AM nice tooling work indeed, i like a thumb hole. Put some locktite on those screws they come loose about two miles in. Quote Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms. “I won’t be wronged, I won’t be insulted, and I won’t be laid a hand on. I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” THE DUKE!
