SchrodingerStock blank in need of profiling
Do any of you have recommendations for someone to profile my wood blank in a reasonable time frame?
Thanks

BobsterRichards Microfit will profile customer blanks if one of their styles is acceptable. They say 6-8 weeks timeframe.

SchrodingerThanks, Bobster, but I have a pattern stock that I’ve spent more hours on than I want to admit.

SchrodingerI might add, I simply don’t have the talent to shape a stock from a wood blank. I’ve gone through a large can of Bondo and a container of glass bedding to finally get the stock where I want it. I stand it awe of those makers who can make a stock from a blank, but it ain’t me.
If you're looking for someone to put it on a duplicator, John Vest is very good He is in Redmond. PM me for details
