What's new at the bench?

One rifle for a right hander and the other for a lefty. I went back after another member mention the use of nitric acid to color maple. Its funny stuff but it requires some instruction to use safely. I am looking for other builders to post some work and not talk about power tools these days. Hope.

Love the crotch grain in the door.

nice work. did it make you nervous when it turned your maple that ugly green color before you kicked it with a heat gun?

where are you getting wood like that door panel? Beautiful work as always.

That pistol and the cradle are things of beauty. There's a lot of time and money parked there just like the rifles.
