Jim@IMRepsNice work Evan, thanks for sharing. I've tried my hand at checkering and learned early on that I don't have the temperament. I also had trouble keeping straight lines straight on a curved surface. I admire those fleurs, good job.

Duane Wiebe (CG&R)Well...did plenty of "flower de lilly" since at one time it was sorta expected on a "custom stock"
While recognizing EvanK's talent with a veiner...And..it was a damn good effort...Just hope Evan uses that talent to refine the hundred or so years of evoution that defines a fine timeless high water mark

Evan K.Thanks all!
Jim I've settled down in Mounds View.
Here's one I cut last week, just a simple point pattern on a sporting clays stock with a giant grip. Lots of coverage, very grippy now.

Evan K.I can cut mullered borders but it isn't in my style to put them on everything.
