I received my stock from Richard's Microfit yesterday. I took lots of pictures before I did anything to it. I want to document the whole process with pictures and words and maybe find a free web hosting site, so that I can do sort of a "How To" website on stock shaping, finer points of inletting and bedding the action, and finishing the completed stock, from a beginners point of view. This is the first stock that I will be finishing, so, what better time to write about a beginner's perspective than now, right?
I would like some help along the way, but I don't have questions yet about finishing. I would like to keep this thread open so I can come and ask questions etc, and as sort of a progress report to keep you all informed on how it's coming. I will post some pictures as I go as well.
I do have some questions right now, but not so much about rifles or refinishing, so I will start off by listing them below.
1) Does anyone know of such a free hosting site?
2) Has this been done to death, so much, that it would be a waste of my time to do it again?
3) If so, can you give me addresses of some examples of sites that have done this?
I am sure I will have questions coming up, but for now I am just doing A LOT of sanding and shaping. I worked for about 4 hours last night, sanding until my hand was having so many "Charlie Horses" that I couldn't hold the sanding block any longer. So I gave up and went to bed!
I appreciate your help and any advice you can give me.
Thanks!
Mike
