I still need to get all the finish off. I 'm NOT going to get it checkered but may stipple it. Also want to thin out the forend Maybe schnabble or ebony tip. White outline stuff has to go oh may pancake the cheekpiece too | ||

Try staining the white spacers with black shoe dye and then finishing over them to seal in. Are you shooting for a little "belly" where the forend blends into the receiver section? Like a MS. Or,are you going after a splinter forend like early Mausers? A discreet Schnabel would look good. | |||

Did you ever see a monte Carlo pancake cheekpiece. | |||

slim up the forend. I've been using the sw called Generic cadd since PC DOS. change to General cadd when Generic cadd was discontinued. GCD to GXD. I can import a JPG. rescale it (hence the ruler) | |||

Can't be undone. the vertical pencil is where my cheek is. | |||

No. I would go straight across at the comb (proper term?) if it was mine. But, it's your project. Have fun with it. Oval cheek piece would look cool.
Life itself is a gift. Live it up if you can. | |||

Not sure about the transition at the comb. Chisels and I don't get along, a least not until I get them all sharpened. | |||
