Summer's gone but not the chores. I got back to work on this gunstock for my brother. It should be done by hunting season.

It's looking very good for a troll. I can't believe the bravery of someone starting to carve on another person's gunstock.

Beautiful! I agree with Tom E. I wouldn't think of carving on another person's valuable item. I have a loooong way to go before that happens.

Beautiful piece, he will love it.

Hey Elwood! Good to see what you're working on. Remembering the last one you showed us, this one will be great when you are done!

Great job Elwood, but like the other guys, I don't know how you got the nerve up to attack a nice walnut(looks like) gunstock that belongs to someone else.

It didn't happen overnight (getting up the nerve that is). And my little brother had to see one finshed before he volunteered to by next guinea pig.
Here is the first one I did.

Hats off to you Elwood. The first one isn't too shabby either.
