After a final quick sand , the stock got a coating of walnut #2 stain today. No pics yet (been busy) but as stain dries to a very dull and flat finish, it's looking rather unimpressive at the moment. All that will change however once the 2pot clear gets applied :)
Will put up before and after pics of that for sure.

All the grain seems to be hiding for now, it's there - it will show itself once the clear is on, and if I've done it right it should come up with a finish that will have plenty of appeal.

sorry no pics inbetween , but heres a couple to keep the followers interested.
Now i just have to get some time to put some shots through it and make sure the balance is right :)

everything was mint in the finish, until i put it down on a towel (that unbenowen to me had a screw underneath it) no problem, live with the mark until after xmas then give it to the cabinetmakers to touch up :)
the knee riser/hamster is a little close to the pistol grip, but thats going to be altered, and then will get a second support put in to provide more stability, will probably bring it closer to the stock as well - purely for aesthetics.
