I am looking for someone to checker a new stock for me. Looking for someone good, affordable and not too backlogged. Someone in the western part of the US would be nice.
Thanks in advance.

You might find one via acgg.org site, the custom gunmakers guild.

Good, affordable and not too backlogged. ?
You have high hopes to get all three of those.

Good, Cheap, fast.
You can generally get any two of the three.
Good and fast, not cheap

Please read my original post. I didn't ask for "cheep" nor "fast". Thanks Sam and Chuck for your replies.

No disrespect intended Muchatrucha. Just having a little fun.
I think the interpretation went something like:
good
affordable (cheap)
not too backlogged (fast)
I was referred to Sherry by another checkering craftsman friend as someone who does very nice work, but her lead time was longer than I needed at the time. Please let us know who you use and all the details for future reference.
Best,
Bill

Recently did a stock for me in borderless checkering. It's probably the best checkering that I have on any firearm. It cost about 400.00 which is the going rate. 1 month turnaround. I'm sure your time may vary. She's in Idaho.
