Parker checkering

[Dean Romig]

It worked.

If I may be brutally honest... the mullered border is very nive but the checkering isn't cut quite deep enough. Your VH or GH checkering pattern is correct but is not cut quite deep enough. Flat topped is correct but not that flat.

Now.... why would you not cut the beavertail checkering to a standard Parker pattern??

The beavertail was from a gun that I made wood for a few months ago. Actually, that beavertail went to the wood stove and the correct splinter was made for that gun. Only two pictures are from the gun I just finished. Thanks for the advice on the depth of the checkering, much appreciated. Again, I knew it would be flat, all I had to go by was pictures. Thanks for your opinion, I value them, as I'm a finatic about detail. Jerry
