Ace_of_Hearts 306 Posted June 1 Alright. I have been besieged by individuals who want finished stocks for their beloved guns, because they don't have the skills or the want to to fit the stock to the steel. After I get my shop moved (Hopefully by July) I will begin making completed buttstocks for $250.00 and fore stocks for $150.00. 90% inletted are $150.00 and $75.00 respectively. Recoil pads will be $25.00 +pad if done at the same time as the stock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McCandless 591 Posted June 10 OOooh! Fantastic. I'm going to need a new buttstock for my SKB. Acraglas and pegs are holding it together now... Let us know when you're open for business. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ace_of_Hearts 306 Posted June 11 I have about half the roof on the new storage shed so I can start moving my stuff into it. I'll be so glad to get all my power tools inside where I can work without disturbing the neighbors. I am afraid they are going to have to put up with the noise of the duplicator though. I takes up too mush room and produces a bunch of dust but at least I will be able to get to it without moving 1000 pounds of stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ace_of_Hearts 306 Posted June 11 Try to remember guys.... and girls.... It is a LOOSE fitting stock that cracks and splits easier on a gun. Take that shotgun (and rifle) and invest in a glass bedding kit from any good supplier. YES, this includes the Fore stock. Bedding the stock properly causes the recoil to be absorbed more evenly. Not just where steel touches wood now. A $25.00 kit is a lot cheaper than a new stock or having to repair a stock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ace_of_Hearts 306 Posted June 27 Well.... The new storage shed is almost done and I have just a few shingles left to put on the roof when and if the wind stops blowing. Most of my electronic security parts are nor moved into this shed and I am wiring the old shed for my use as my NEW shop. I can see my machines. I just can't get to them to use them yet. (Anyone want to come help me move a 400 lb band saw?) At the rate I am going I will be able to start producing finished stocks by the end of August.

I have to pick it up about 2 feet to get it in the door. I think I'll just disassemble it into three parts and put it back together inside.

Ace_of_Hearts 306 Posted July 11 The shop is nearing completion. Just the Thickness planer and the drill press and a small grinder/buffer to go. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
