Title: Checkering
Post by: Mattb on July 11, 2021, 06:32:32 PM
So,after making my own stock for my RAW 6months or so ago I attempted some checkering on it. I've been practicing on and off for a while and finally plucked up the courage to give it a go on my stock. Made a couple of mistakes on the first side but the setting out in the other side went well.

That's a pretty good effort, not bad at all.
I'd be pleased with that.

I admire you doing that and a cracking job you have done.
I did try some years ago and got on ok with it but I do like stipple much better and started doing a deep 3 stage stipple on most of my guns and my clients.
Keep up the good work.

Regards Kev.

Thanks,it's so much harder than it looks. Lots more practice needed.
