SAW’s 1 piece laminate stock ////////COMPLETE////////
got a few spare moments to start my laminate stock for the super talon 😛
I decided to go with a one piece stock with a bottle supporting set-up 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄 🙄
I kinda hacked it, just cause I have two more blanks glued up, so this one is kinda an experiment.
I just went ahead and ran a 1/2″ x 3/4″ dado all the way through, next one I will get a bit more precise with it.
Where the bottle rests, the dado will go away as for I plan on doing a radius dado, 🙄 🙄 , the bottle will rest on it.
Trigger guard will be part of the stock, SAW butt, will also be carved into the works.
WOK makes some great parts for these guns and is truly the king when it comes to design and after market goodies, I have them all.
However, I am gonna give the grip a cant forward a few degress/ more straight up and down like.
Prob. an old skateboard injury, IE broken wrists, that made me do a little tweak with the grip angle.
Now the following pics. are just rough cuts, lots of sanding and grinding to follow 😀 😀 😀
I bought one of those Rigid oscillating sanding table thing a ma jigs, that should come in handy.
I will keep all you guys up to date with the progress

Looks like it ought to take care of the frame flex problems! 😀
I will clear coat it and see how it looks!
Sign me up! how much for the next one?
That is a really nice stock.
Looks real nice SAW!!!
Actually Maw,
the baltic birch ply looked kinda bad with stain,
Now next time I think I will laminate real wood like mahogany and
thin maple for strength,
Now thats something that will not get the rattle can 😉

I would not or could not justify bedliner for something that looks that good!!
That looks very good saw.
Glad you didn’t do what I voted for and burn it !!
Thanxs guys, actually had fun messing around with it, learned alot
Next time I will take more time and use some better wood.
Jerry, gonna finally run some of your slugs through her soon.
Let ya know how it does.

Looks great…
You got me thinking about painting mine black now… 😕
Very nice work there! We’ll be demanding some performance test results now! 🙄
Looks great 😀
Hand rub some tung oil into it. Much better than clear coat, much better for the wood, no peeling or flaking later, and down the road all you need to do is rub a few more coats unlike a clear coat finish…TUNG OIL!!!! 😈
Or BEDLINER…you can’t go wrong with a black rifle look 😎
By the way, it came out SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTT!!!!!
Looks great! I know it probably hurt spraying on that bedliner but I think it worked out well.
Well, majority rules, went with the ole’ rattle can 🙄
The thing just was not right with stain, well here it is, when I took these shots I didn’t have the front screw in yet, had to make a trip to the hardware store, man I can’t tell how convenient it is to have a mom and pop nutz and bolts store nearby, hope that place never goes out of buis., I would be seriously bummed.
Oh yeah the pics, I think this whole thing came out pretty nice, shoulders very nicely.
And the ass end, bottle support 😉 😉 😉
All in all a fun weekend project, I have some big chucks of Honduran Mahogany, next one will be real wood.

Try some thin primer maybe spray on (allow the grain to show through) then reapply the black stain.
