Aaron Little, thats a great looking shop. Is the floor on a slab? My last shop had wood floors and I put down metal sheets to spread the load of machine weight a little more evenly across the 2 by 4s. _____________________ Steve Traxson | |||

Rich, if Aaron and stormsGSP can take Dave's response as advice and not get bent out of shape, I sure can. But we might be a little more grown up then you. All that aside, I love the looks of the rifle being built. I hope you give us more pictures of how you are addressing the wood strength issues. | |||

I thought that posting PM's was grounds for removal from AR. Would the moderators please explain why they let certain members get away with it. I just received another threatening PM from ISS as have many others over the years. I'll post my complaint with the moderators. | |||

Very nice work Aaron. Perhaps a stern “knock it off” from a moderator would keep the out of an otherwise useful thread. Jim "Life's hard; it's harder if you're stupid" John Wayne | |||

Aaron, will the barrel mounted recoil lug take the shock from transferring to the pistolgrip? Would pillar bedding the tang make any difference? Do love the shape it's taking!! | |||

Aaron, That project is coming along well. Do you intend to personally checker the stock? Nice work. Keep us in the loop. CB Life itself is a gift. Live it up if you can. | |||

No doubt, dorleac is top notch. I do plan to checker it, doing a subdued point pattern. Rear panels will meet at the top only. Front will be wrap-around. All work from here on out will be under me. http://www.facebook.com/profil...p?id=100001646464847 A.M. Little Bespoke Gunmakers LLC 682-554-0044 Michael08TDK@yahoo.com | |||

Aaron I really like the style of that rifle. Looks svelte like it will result in a nice handling and carrying rifle. Looking forward to more photos as you progress. Cheers, Chris DRSS | |||

Funny how much that ignore function can improve threads sometimes. Anyways, Aaron you know I like the Dorleac look too. Looking forward to seeing it trimmed up with the mag box. Thanks for the updates. "If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy." | |||

Aaron, great looking work and great set up. I do have some thoughts about Dave Wesbrooks comments. His thoughts were about a piece of wood. He was not insulting anyone. Diplomacy needed when speaking about a piece of wood? He obviously put some thought and knowledge into his comments. Why should that be done in PM? His comments might help others and get some comments and advice from others. His comments did get you to discuss with other experts and come up with actions to correct potential problem with the wood. Would you have done this without his comments? It was said Dave Wesbrook adds nothing of value to the forum. Seems to me he got the ball rolling for the corrective action. I think Dave should be thanked--not spanked. | |||

Just a thanks for posting this thread. I have enjoyed seeing the rifle emerge from a rough blank and getting to watch the progress. Very informative. "For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind..." Hosea 8:7 | |||

Aaron, keep them pics coming! Great work. The peanut gallery will never shut up, pretty soon they'll be asking why you didn't buy brand X lathe vs. brand Y...all of them who are doing nothing but watching your excellent work. Good on you and we appreciate you sharing your pics and projects. | |||

Helluva guy you are, whats the old expression? With friends like you, who needs enemies? Good thing you are locked away in your shop all day, you ain't fit for society. Speaking of skinny, your fiancee called me, she wanted me to talk to you about your weight. She wants me to convince you to work out every once in a while, having multiple chins in your wedding photo isn't a good look. To answer Mike's question, I'm 6'4" and wanted a long LOP. It looks a bit funky with the pad, I agree, but I'll try it and see what I think, and if I can cut the pad down a little. ----------------------------------------- "I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. -Henry David Thoreau, Walden | |||

So why didn't you just get another piece of wood? | |||

Because I didn't want to toss an $800 blank... Not to mention it is still 14" to the end of the wood. ----------------------------------------- "I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. -Henry David Thoreau, Walden | |||
