Here are some pictures of a stock that is finished all except for the checkering, the rifle has been built and blued and the bedding and all those type things are done, the gun has been shot and checked for accurary and function and all that is left to do is the checkering.

This is what it looks like with just the out line and master lines cut in

This is what it looks like with the first cuts of the job done and the second set of lines being cut

This is what it looks like when the job is done and the finish has been applied

That work can only be done by a "master craftsman." You did a great job, Steve.

Nice job! The first time I did any chekering I spent 5 time as much time on it than on the making of the thumb hole stock, bedding, bluing, scope mounts and all other stuff. Sure did a good job, you must have a lot of patients and a good steady hand.
