    Re-finishing Question

    What would you folks use to remove a stock finish when god only knows what was used on it? My first thought would be aircraft stripper, but I would rather use something less caustic. It's a maple stock, BTW. Thanx..............

    powder availability

    Graf and sons is great. They sell a good deal more than powder. I get my powder and some other useful BP goodies from them.

    Cva hawken finish change questions

    I used aircraft stripper on my CVA when I got tired of looking at the shiny finish. It worked real well. The Dangler stains are great, and I recommend you also get Jim's orange toner. It is a great base and used under stain gives great contrast. Rick

    best way to fill a hole

    I mig weld the hole, then file and re-tap. The browning always covers the mistakes ( that I make aplenty) :wink:

    I Ordered my Kit

    I am putting the final touches on my .54 Haines from the Chambers folks. You will be very happy with it. I also got the wood upgrade and it has more lines than a zebra :grin: I'm staining it with orange toner and the Danglers golden brown.

    rifle shoppe kits ?

    I agree, John. They have things you cannot get elsewhere. My beef with them is not the product, just getting what you paid for delivered.

    rifle shoppe kits ?

    I was told when I made my order that everything was in stock. That was not the case. According to them, I'll get in two weeks(and so on,and on,and on). In my opinion kits from Chambers, Davis, Jim Klein, ect. are much more customer friendly.

    rifle shoppe kits ?

    I ordered a Baker rifle parts set from them almost 2 years ago, and I'm still waiting for parts. At this rate, I'll have something to do in the old age home They sell really good quality stuff,but don't seem to keep any kind of stock on hand.

    Orange toner

    I kinda figured it needed more work. At least I can play with it for awhile, get a feel for mixing layers of stains. I'm staining a Jim Chambers Issac Haines kit, and paid extra for the nicer wood. Even dry the figure jumps out at you so I want to be sure I do it right.

    Orange toner

    Thanks fellas. I was originally going to use aquafortis but my test wood came out black. I'm not sure if I screwed up, or if it's the wood that made it so. Now I'm in full chicken out, and want to do something else. Jim has the toner in stock so I'm going to try it. What a learning experience my...

    Has anyone ever used this? I was told it brings out curl really well.

    Sharpening Equipment?

    I second the use of slipstones. I recently tried the flexi-cut system from Woodcrafts and it works real well. Inexpensive, as well. Sharp tools really make a difference!

    What chisels are your favorites

    I like using dogleg chisels. They feel good in my hand and I can control them better than the straight ones.

    Curl highlighting

    Thanks for all the input fellas. I'm going to try out your suggestions on some scraps and get a handle on how to use it. I'll post the Lancaster when it's done for your critique. I'll try not to screw it up too bad :haha:

    Curl highlighting

    I have a very curly maple stock to stain, and was wondering how to best bring out the curl in the wood. I'm using honey brown Danglers stain. Is it enough, or do I need to do something else before staining? Thanks...............

    Kit suggestions

    Jim Klein also has very high quality kits. I recently purchased his Berry rifle kit and was pleasantly surprised. Parts are first quality, and a grade 6 curly maple stock is standard. Its 95% inlet and with a long-rifle builders book a novice (like me)should have no major difficulty in its...
