Stock profile alterations.
Thought I'd share the stock profiling changes on my current project. I wanted the stock to look a little more like a Berks County rifle. Any thoughts or suggestions would be most appreciated.
First picture shows the removal of the stock star inlay and the lines to remove and reshape the cheek and bottom edge of the buttstock

After reshaping the cheek and starting on the wrist.

Still have a long way to go but I thought after reading Jon's thread on redoing Ricks rifle, the stock profile changes might be interesting.
