I recently finished this one up. It’s Leopard wood scales, black linen micarta, some thin white fiber spacers and a clear polycarbonate core. Shoots great and looks pretty decent.

Good job!
Tell me, what did you make the holes for the plugs, and what is their diameter?

Oh yeah, more than decent looking. 👍👍 I liked that you used the ocularis plugs. Makes me wonder if a person could use the plugs but beneath a flat fork? I’d guess so.. 🤷‍♂️

Nicely done! I'm interested in your choice of polycarbonate for the core. It's certainly light and strong, but I've always had it splinter and even crack on me when I'm cutting it. Could be I tried polycarb that was too thin. It might also be how I tried to cut it. So how thick did you use, and what did you use to cut it? Thanks, and again, very well done!

Just to field a couple of questions, I used a 3/4” Forstner bit for the plug holes. The polycarbonate and micarta are 1/8”, in order to keep the polycarbonate from splintering, I glue up everything first and then cut and sand.

That makes sense to reduce splintering. I'll have to see if I have any polycarb laying around and give that a try.
