Beautiful stock. Even better it is a left handed rifle, I shoot left handed due to eye challenges.

The barrel came to me that way. I think they call it pins and needles fluting...
Solid piece of wood. I have a significant amount of blanks that I sourced over the years.
Beautiful piece Joel Russo!

There are so few true craftsmen these days. You're a master at taking something and transforming it to a work of art.

Joel, your talent takes stock making into the art world. I admire your work and I don't think I've ever seem one of your stocks that I did not like.
What do you use to cut the adjustable cheek piece loose from the main part of the stock? A thin bladed band saw? My "inquiring mind" wants to know.

A standard band saw blade is used to cut the cheek piece from the stock. Then a reshape of the comb is necessary as the kerf of the blade removes a bit of wood, and the cheek piece will sit lower when placed in the stock.
Joel,
As always, it's another masterpiece.

OK, now it makes sense. I wondered how you did that, now I know. An "a-ha" moment for me. Thanks Joel.
