    You could try nath92 on the AGF, he has a very good reputation.

    Second that, he's done two for me, one in black and one in red, very good work and reasonable price to.

    Indeed he is, he has done some good work for me, too. Nathan is also a member here on the good old BBS, but I can't for the life of me remember his BBS user name (may even be the same? I'll have a mini investigation and get back) ...

    Investigation complete. Seems it is, so send a message or email to BBS member nath92 and see how you get on. Memory tells me he isn't a prolific internet user, however, so best allow him a good few days to get back to you? Good luck and keep us all posted.

    Wow thanks for all the replies. This is exactly why I love the BBS. I will put up some pics in here when the stock is back to it's former glory.

    He does frequent the AGF a lot more than here as uses it to advertise his work. I had a fwb sport stock refurbished by him and at £65 it was (and still is) a great job.

    Without a doubt Nathan is your man. He has done nine or ten for me now.

    Does anyone know if nath92/Nathan’s skills extend to doing jobs like checkering, stippling, stock alterations etc. or is it just refinishing?

    If it’s the guy I’m think of he’s not far from me so will get in touch if he can do wood work too.

    Cheers
    Greg

    Yes he's the man you're thinking of. He works in a furniture shop in Oswaldtwistle. Send him a pm (you'll probably get a quicker reply on AGF) and he'll tell you exactly what he does.
