I thought I'd preview this as apparently I'm on some timeline imposed by others.

Nice! A little slow but nice.

I like what you did with the PG, so is it comfortable?

 

[Deckard]

I think I made it in 3 weeks, and the last week I've had the flu, so I think I did okay. It is very ergonomic and ambidextrous. I sculpted out the middle handle so that one can use the other hand to pull it in and hold it tight. It is no heavier than the original stock.

Do you think that if you had taken less time and worked harder you could have done a better job? It may not be your fault Lector may have distracted you?













JK nice work!

 

[Deckard]

It's still wet. You said red, but is it too red?

 

[suprathepeg]

If you go to akforum.net there is a guy there who has been able to replicate the factory color retty well. Maybe add a darker stain to bring out a darker color.

Can you find me a picture? Like this?

 

[Dr.Lector]

That's a good job for something started from scratch.
I am not suggesting the color is pink,
but something few darker shades would look better.

 

[Deckard]

I am finding this difficult.

 

[suprathepeg]

what is difficult exactly?
