Powder Keg:
I'm glad people are enjoying this. Today I managed to get the handle mounted onto my pistol. I also managed to bust off one of the brass screws I was using to mount it with. I had to mill it out bigger and turn a wood dowel to fill the hole and glue it in. I'll try and finish shaping the handle tomorrow.

Powder Keg:
Before starting the shaping I put a piece of electrical tape on the receiver. This was my gauge to stop filing/sanding. It worked out great!!!
I filed/sanded the wood down where the hand guard is inletted also.
I then shaped and blended everything together. First I filed it close then I sanded it the rest of the way down. I'm using emery cloth glued to a board with great results.
After I got it sanded down where I wanted it I mopped on some denatured alcohol. This raised the grain and cleaned out the pores. I then sanded it down again. I did this several times until the little feathers quit coming back. The wood is almost shiny now.
Later,
~Wes~
