Checking to see if the forum will accept the pics to post ...

Here shown while it still needed a couple of more passes. Now complete.

Here showing how the stock tapers from the grip backwards. And from the wrist grip to the front off the forestock grip.

Close planning. Thin where it can be. The strength of the rifle is in the steel action.

Well, it accepted a few pics. Crashed a couple of times when I tried a couple of more. Took forever to load this post for me to comment here. Have no idea what's going on. Another rough spot. Guess it will pass.

Billet requires edge sanding yet - polishing. Then that's complete.

Timber Wolf stocks are going into the oven tonight to bake finishes. Carvings are complete.

BTW ... there's no "finish" on there. That's polished natural materials. Weathered Elk stag.

Gary,

Now that you showed the Timber Wolf stock from other angles it really show some complex curves. Wow! This one is looking classically beautiful.

Jerry's Yukon is in a class of its own. I WANT one of those cheek pieces, but mine made out of a whale tooth.He, he, he.

We know that this Yukon will be used and documented for us to enjoy.

Of course, we'll have to do a "cheek fitting", which will require Kelly and I to fly to Peurto Rico for a week .... whistling .... haha.

Hi Jerry,
