Baker Stock Repairs.....
 

.....almost completed. This gun has an interesting 'trigger plate action' that did not leave much wood after all the inletting was done. The stock suffered a bit, but I fused it together with a large staple in front and lots of Acra Glas. I removed as much oil as I could and Dremel'd the cracks to get into some clean wood for the 'Glas. Oooops, my brand spanking new Grand-Daughter found her way in this thread!

I guess a few 'before' photos wouldn't hurt!

Congratulations on the new Granddaughter!! Is her name Parker?

Gentlemen, you are too kind! Trystin is a little bundle of joy. Her 3 year old brother spent the night with me and said I was 'all old and crumpled up'. Out of the mouths of babes, right? I never imagined being a grandparent at 51, but it is fun! Cheers!
