Default Need Checkering

All,

I am in the process of refinishing a shotgun stock. 50 years of use and sanding has made the checkering nothing more than wood with lines in it.

Would anyone here be willing to deepen the checkering or know someone who would?

Please PM me with info and we can discuss. Thank you!

Regards
Franz

If you are at all handy this is a fun DIY. The tools are not expensive and the hard part (the layout) is already done; all you have to do is follow the lines!

Do a little research online and see if you feel up to it.

I have a habit of screwing things up the first try. Call it a learning curve. I buy iron sights 3 at a time lol.
