chuck375A stock out of this for my 500 Jeffery sounds wonderful. I'm guessing it won't warp with moisture like normal walnut?

FjoldSome questions that I have:
How will it take stain?
What tooling does it need to cut and shape it?
Will it take checkering?
Cost?

boom stickI don’t think you could stain it unless it’s purely on the surface. It would be cool to see how walnut could turn out. Someone call the company.

One could for see all kinds of uses.

butchlocwho cares -a nice piece of wood properly treated and properly made is not giving problems for a lifetime -

sambarman338I would wonder what species it is made of - if pine, I'd pass.
YouTube is full of product ads too good to be true and maybe this is just another one.

boom stickIt’s a process, not a specific species of wood. I think walnut being 1/5 the original dimension would come out very dark.

jeffeossoAnyone remember when Turnbull made the wood furniture and "color cased" ar15? This would be a wild combo

boom stickI want a rifle stock that can be ran over by the safari jeep and still be used as a club for knocking out baboons and still be useful as a cricket bat
Speaking of bats, this would make one hell of a a Louisville Slugger baseball bat.

Mark ClarkCousineau Wood Products Makes a laminate called Dymalux that is pretty much indestructible, kinda heavy. And it exists. Their Spectraply is normal laminate for gun stocks. I have used it with good results. Cool color combos. "
