Checkering Mullered Borders - How I do it Video
Just wrapped up this video on mullered borders. It's how I do them, but I'm sure there's other methods. It took me awhile to figure it out so I hope this video helps save someone some time. You'll notice the stock pictured is a little different than our typical design. It was built to the customer's very specific specs. That said, in the end I was very happy with how it came out.

farbedoGreat video. That is a skill that is tough to master.
I really like the drop blind mag on that stock.

Thanks! The drop blind mag was part of the customer's wish list to have a very light weight rifle in a .416 wildcat that had 5 1/2 rounds down +1 capacity. Hence the lightening cuts in the barrel channel as well as the buttstock. Like I said, not my standard design, but he and I were both happy with the outcome.

lindy2I think it is very generous and kind of you to provide people with all of the videos you have produced to show them how your guns are made.
Really nice website too.

metalWell done, thanks for the vid. I've never done mullered borders because by the time I've finished the pattern I'm so over it I just finish it up.
Thanks guys.
Metal: I can completely relate. I'm a fairly slow checkerer, so after several days into a project I'm certainly ready to be done.

AtkinsonThey are almost must on my rifles, most of which are on the European/British style stocks I build that are mostly point patterns.
