    First Build

    I scraped the stock, then whiskered it and boned it then applied five coats of Tru Oil to it... I was very pleased with the Tru Oil, the next project I am going to attempt is a plain Pennslvania rifle. Yellowhammer :v

    boning a stock

    I have been refinishing a Hawken flintlock and tried boning the stock and I am happy with the result. My question is there another step, should I coat it with something or leave it as is? yellowhammer
