Default WOOD REPAIR ON A VH 16 FRAME 0

I was the "winning bidder" on a very nice 16 GA VH back in early September. When I received the gun it had significant damage to both wood and finish on both sides of the upper tang. To make matters worse the area was filled with some kind of nonmatching wood putty. " No Returns".
I sent pictures to Brian Dudley and asked if he could do something with it. His response was "Well that is pretty ugly. --- But it will be better than whatever that is."
So off to Brian it goes.
Got it back yesterday and his work was fantastic! Here are before and after pictures.
Thank you Brian for a Great Job!

Brian has a gun of mine. He said "It won't be perfect".
That's the kind of 'not perfect' that I would be pleased with.
