[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 2135834, member: 63925"] Susquatch: like the steady weight idea. The rosin was spread thinly and just got tossed all over when I pulled out. I used solid 7/8" hickory floor planking on top and bottom like you suggested earlier in this last go. That stuff doesn't give at all and spread the force evenly across the bigger oak blocks I made. Here they are and noticed the rosin wasn't as even as I hoped. But I feel the compression was as stout as I could get with my setup. They are quite a bit bigger that original blocks. The smith Mark Penrod is well known and surprised he offered to help. His builds are pretty darn good. He is well known for his switch barrel and work on Ruger 1's. He has done work for me in past and he said no problem! He is a full service gunsmith from custom builds to general work so has all the "toys" to get it done. Appreciated all the suggestions and it was definitely a learning experience and gotta say somewhat fun! Thanks for the help offer! That was very much appreciated! [/QUOTE]
