Cleaned up the checkering:

The skeleton butt cleaned up nicely as well. The 2nd photo shows the colorful grain in the butt as the stock was soaking up a wood grain popping solution.

Sometimes these old guns just get dirty over time and the checkering fills up with "stuff". Nothing a judicious cleaning can't fix. Well done Bruce!

Bruce when I get tired of looking at the wood figure I will look at the checkering, probably going to be a little bit. Nice 👍👍👍
