Glad you're happy with it and that's all that matters. I don't remember how many times I heard " it looks like a 2X4. " I once told a friend who ran a BP gunshop for 40 years [ and taught engraving classes ] that very thing when he showed me one of his guns. He was so proud of it - I thought his wife was gonna have a cow - she laughed so hard. I kept a straight face. She told me latter how many times he said that to someone else, it served him right . If you're going to do it with just a board, make sure it's flat on three sides and perpendicular to each other. That way when you drill for pinning the barrel or ramrod thimble pinning holes or the screw holding the lock in place you'll be going straight through because you'll have a flat surface to lay the stock on. The drill won't want to slide like on a curved surface. Install the barrel first, then you'll know where to position the lock, and then where to put the trigger assembly. If a full stock the ramrod grove can be cut with a router. Half or full stock the thimbles are installed and used to guide a drill for the hidden part of the ramrod. Back it out every 1/2" and clean the chips so it doesn't wander. Everything else is easy to locate. Pre shaped stocks can save some time but are hard for most people to locate and drill the cross holes. My brother from Alaska came over once and in one day we installed the barrel, lock, trigger, buttplate, and ramrod. All he had left was the thimbles and to shape the stock. Five years latter when he moved back down near me I ended up plugging the many holes he drilled for the thimbles and drilled new ones so the thimbles were tight. I told him he shouldn't try to build guns, or even work on them. He kind a laughed.
