Cadet, You would be surprised at what many on this board can do --- even those that don't know it yet. A desire to creat something coupled with a mouth to ask for help (on this board) will bring tons of feed back. Over the years, I have suggested to clients that they prep their action prior to sending them to me in order to save money. Their reply usually is "I don't know how to." Once I explain "how" most of these folks usually do a repectable job which seldom requires much more than a hit & a lick of polishing before I start cutting design. I maintain that those looking for help will find it here. The end product of their efforts generally reflects their patience & dedication to quality work. Folks like me have the benefit of being able to practice seven days a week, 10-12 hours a day. Imagin how good you'd be if you spent the same amount of time practicing along with guidence .
I believe there would be a lot of new folks join our group "IF" they knew there was also an active group of classic rifle affinadoes here. Ken
