This is the first F-Class target stock I've carved. Last week I modified a benchrest stock into a specialized target stock for F-Class. It's benchrest, but the matches aren't shot from a bench. They shoot from 600 to 1000 yards from the prone position. Front rests and rear sandbags are...

a very dear friend who lives down the street lost his life to cancer a month ago, his dear wife asked me to make her a urn, so i went about it, got my measurements and went to work, i made it out of cherry and some highly figured walnut…she and her family really liked it, they will plan when...

I carved this stock this morning. It's the third attempt to getting it carved… The problem was carving the outside of one design and then switching the patterns and carving the interior. Or inletting the stock. The original stock pattern was cut to fit a Remington 700 BDL with a varmint...

Nice lidded bowl/container turned from a piece of wild cherry. This bowl is one of the larger turnings I have done. I thought using Wild Cherry, the color of the bowl would have been a redder color. It is reflecitng alot of character especially the side shot showing a imdage of some thing...

This varmint stock fits a Savage 25-06 varmint rifle. It's made from tiger maple and wild cherry. It's been sanded to 180 grit at this point and there is no oil or finish applied. It's tough to get good photos of unfinished maple before dye or oil has been applied. After finishing this stock...

Back in June I was down in Georgia at a family reunion, and my Dad's cousin gave me some wild cherry he had cut down several years ago. A lot of it was checked and split up, but I did find some pieces that were big and in good enough condition to make something out of. Knowing my Dad's cousin as...

This stock was carved from black walnut & cherry. To get the laminations laid out like the original, the center section was thickness sanded to 0.444 and the two cherry sections were sanded to 0.333. It's a lot easier to lay out a laminated stock, when you create an original stock. Making a...

This stock is made from ambrosia maple, walnut and a center section of wild cherry. The finish is just a coat of tung oil and it's only been sanded to 120grit. Ambrosia maple is so hard that it takes a great finish. You can go to 600 grit for a mirror smooth finish. I love the natural desert...

Just a little knock up I made today to try out an idea.. I bought all that European wild cherry and some of the pieces were tapered so I glued up a few with a strip of PH in between. It was then cross cut and rolled.. same old same old. This is #1 of about 100 to 150 I need to make in the next...
