Finished my new Woodsrunner .54 stock.
The original came with a cherry stock with carving in it. It was pretty but I could just never get used to the carving.
They called me the other day and said they had found a piece of Cherry burl and asked if I wanted it.
I finished it up today. 6 coats of Chambers oil followed by 4 coats of Tru oil. I rubbed the sheen off with a 3-M pad but then put 3 coats of renascence wax and 1 coat of dark wax on it.
It is still a little shiny but I need to wait a couple of weeks for everything to harden up before I try to rub it back again.
Headed to the Texas hill country tomorrow to put it to work.

OOOOOOOOH ---- I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!! I asked Jim about getting a fancy cherry stocked Woodsrunner and he said that that type of cherry stock does not come up often and I would have to wait until one comes up. Yours is just PERFECT in all aspects---.
