Custom Stock Lockdown Project

[tomdavies9]

Nearing completion on my custom stock for my Titan Mohawk. Just regular birch ply as its my first proper go but I'm proud of how its coming along. I've tried to go for a modern shape with clean lines not a large target style stock, I still wanted a nice streamlined and light shape but with adjustability where I needed it.

Pics hopefully attached, all feedback welcome before I make anymore as I've definitely got the bug

HI, That looks very well made, congrats, don't be surprised if others ask for a copy,if your finish, is half as good,it will be a corker,good luck,lets see her dressed.

Excellent work, are you going too stain it or just use natural oil.
I make my stocks from coloured laminate and its a great wood to use.

If others would like a copy then in the near future that should hopefully not be a problem Hopefully have her finished up with action in early in the week!!

Thanks Mark, using tru oil on this one with no stain so it'll have a warm tint to it.
Really wish I'd used a coloured laminate, I love the black pepper and the forest camouflage colour ways!! But I played it safe cost wise this time round, next time eh

That's a lovely piece of work and you must be happy with it. I wish I could do something like that! Wouldn't know where to start but I think that now I will look on YouTube for any inspirational videos.

Forest camo is a big favourite of mine, I have just made a stock for my Anschutz 9015 and one for an air arms hft500 in it.

Very nicely proportioned,I like that!

Impressive work …… I think orders will follow !

That looks amazing.
I am envious of you being able to create something that looks that good. I am not the slightest bit creative, and I can't even draw a straight line using a ruler.
I am sure many people would love a stock like that, myself included.
Looking forward to seeing it all finished. Well done.

Thanks all for the kind words and feedback!!

As much as I knew what I wanted in terms of function/features, I definitely wanted it to be sleek and look good too. I spent a long time researching dimensions and planning the layout while waiting for the ply to be delivered, and I’m glad it seems to have paid off.

Here’s to the next one

Excellent work Sir!

I’d love to have a go at making a custom stock and would be interested to learn what machine tools are required and whether you machined, or manually formed the action inlet?
