One way to take that piece we would normally set aside and burn. Then turn it into a nice shooter, I like it a lot!!!

That’s awesome your a pfs guy ! Not a lot of people here r from what I can tell . I like pickle forks myself shoot them as much as my ott frames .

Thats a really nice piece, I love the grain pattern and the smooth sanding. That crack at the bottom though gives me some worry.

thanks man . I got a thin piece of shim stock think it was .05 mm very think and I packed the two cracks with 2 part epoxy . The cracks r not going anywhere if u think about it not really any different than glueing wood together . I made a lot of scaled frames with oak scales and 10mm plywood core never had a problem. It sucks that the cracks r there but this is just a first run natural pfs natty for me . I never really got the shape I was hoping for to start and the cracks . I never sell or trade it to anyone it's mine and if I ever noticed the cracks moving up the handle I just stop using it but that ever happenings is very unlikely. Haha just Wait for my second try it be a better piece of wood .

Radial cracks are noting to worry about. Great character marks.

 

[dogcatchersito]

Wood filler should do the trick to hide those, and stop it from moving further. It's not like you will be jumping on it though so no worries.

thanks Flip think I asked u a couple years ago about them . Usually I cut long so I can cut them out but this one was a little short no worries from me . Thanks Flip

I recently learned about G-flex. You can go over the whole thing with a thin layer. It will not cover or change the finish and harden your catty.

Ya gflex is good stuff but it’s very expensive I only use that on special stuff . I use dollar store crazy glue just put some nitrate gloves on and spread around frame let cure do that about 8 times and don’t breath or touch with skin u will get a white spot . After u build up start sanding back I start at 320 but sand lite and watch once u get the low spots out keep going up in grits but sand lite . Go to 2000 grit than hit on buffing wheel with green stick it will be as hard as a chickens lips and clear as glass trust me I have done a lot of frames like this .

 

[dogcatchersito]

I never buffed my frames may give that a go one of these days.

 

[31610]

Well it’s not bad feels good should shoot ok . Think I grab the head torch and try it out ????
