Also any suggestions for pre-made fittings (I have seen a few on the bay) would be welcome.

I have three guns which could do with the treatment - Diana 54, HW95k, and possibly also a Hatsan Striker. The last rifle could be a good one to start off with and practice on as it's a cheapie, but because of that it may not be worth the investment?

All advice welcome
One of the biggest problems is making sure your holes for the posts line up squarely, the method I now use is what HW do on their 98, (I basically copied it), you drill the holes from the bottom of the butt up into the part you wish to make adjustable this then ensures alignment.

I then wrap the butt up tight with tape to prevent splits and allow me to mark the lines, then I cut it very slowly with a 14tpi hacksaw blade in a blade holder.

You can then insert rods to raise and lower the cheek piece, and there are plenty of examples on different adjusters.
