It was fun to work on. Thanks for commenting

glued back together my stock i dropped and cracked off the right side of the rail all the way to the rear. Fell apart in 3 chunks soit was super easy to put back together with glue. Next ill bed the stock back into the stock and the refinish the stock , ill remove the old stain and old reshape the parts that are popping out. Use some epoxy to strengthen the cracks with holes and metal pins. Thats what i was missing, a clamp . Once its done it will look like it was a refinished stock. I wanted a rifle to work on anyways so this is all fun for me. I love working on guns of all sorts.

@SixRoundsStudio

Жыл бұрын

Thank you for taking the time to comment Jim. Well...im not sure I can speak for every personality...but for me (a fellow traveler) every day and with every job, I do the best work that my skills and my training allows. I have come to accept that "my best" is the best that I know how, but that "the best" is a place I still need to arrive at (I call it true north). For me perfection is always a future place, and the journey (one foot placed ahead of the other) combined with a willingness to go on that journey with honesty, hard work, perseverance and a dose of humility, will find every next attempt better or improved from the last. Malcolm Gladwell in his book Outliers: The Story of Success, following an analysis of several different researchers, published this concept that it takes 10,000 hours of practice to accomplish "true expertise". Every one of those hours is that one foot placed ahead of the other. However...and always...the artist, the craftsman, "the perfectionist" needs to accept and learn to be comfortable with the state of perfection in which they currently exist...knowing thier very next attempt will build on the former. Honor your mistakes as you learn from them...and then take one more step. I talk about this very concept in many of my videos. Best on your journey Jim.

Bill, I recently found and subscribed to your KZread channel and am really enjoying your videos! Please keep them coming. I also enjoy restoring the classics, but am nowhere near your level of craftsmanship, which is outstanding! Question: What is the brand of artists color that you used to match the color/ stain of the Weatherby stock? I've not used these before and would appreciate any guidance you can offer? Many thanks!

Great job. How much did something like this cost??

@SixRoundsStudio

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the question. We work by the hour so the cost would always depend on the amount of work required to do the repair. We never know what to expect until it reveals itself. For instance having to pick all of the crystalized glue out of the break from a previous repair was unexpected and took time to accomplish.

How much is this repair cost

Awesome job! But unfortunately, a lot of the secret technique seems to be, put 200,000 man-hours into it. It seems like this couldn't possibly be an economical alternative unless the cost of a replacement stock is several thousand dollars!

@SixRoundsStudio

4 жыл бұрын

There are lots of reasons owners choose to repair or restore and not to replace. Cost is a very practical approach (sometimes replacements are not available or themselves very expensive). Other times emotions make the decisions (gun belonged to a friend or family member). And in the case of an antique or classic...its only original once so many owners want to maintain as much original as possible. Its interesting that you think the cost for repair is so high as to make it unreasonable an approach. Thank you for your observation and comment.
