[QUOTE="tinkerer, post: 997018, member: 50973"] To address your lamination question. I made one benchrest stock from 5 pieces of 1" wide cocobolo. Its a oily wood, so I had to clean each piece with acetone first to remove oil, and than I used 2 part clear epoxy to make sure it penetrated. I always use odd number layers to make sure its solid wood behind the pillars. Yes, you can do your own. Saw a beauty from purpleheart and maple. Many woodworkers use Super Titebond wood glue and it works just fine. I always go for overkill to be sure. Good luck, post picks. Larry Tinkerer [/QUOTE]
