Restock of my GH straight grip

[B. Dudley]

My favorate tool is just one of those hobby rasps. It is flat on one side and curves on the other side. One end has a course rasp and the other end is a finer file. I got it from Sears, but they can be found many places. I have other files and rasps that I use as well, but I find this one to be my go-to tool for shaping. The rasp is good for hogging away the wood and the file is enough to smooth out the heavy scrapes, or remove small amounts of wood. Then I work with sandpapers. Scrapers do work well also.

I have every intent to closely document one of my stock jobs and post a full tutorial on it.

Thanks Brian we will all look forward to the tutorial. I actually have the two of the four in one files. Between the four-in-ones and several other files I inherited from my father in law I should have everything I need for my upcomming project. I also have a practice stock to experiment on before I get started.

Can't wait to see the checkering on your GH.
