    Carving a stock which has been fully finished

    What's the worst that can happen? Totally verbotten? I am practicing and I am not yet near wanting to cut on my otherwise not so badly assembled Kibler Colonial. I want to put the finish on wood and metal. Hopefully in the future with lots more practice I will carve up the rifle.

    Dockyard tools

    Has anyone acquired Dockyard tools stropping block? Is it a worthwhile tool? So far I have had good results with some small ruby slip stones but the stropping block would seem to be easier to work with on the V tools and gauges.

    Jump in (the shallow end)

    I am old with really poor eyesight and hands which have lost most of their dexterity but I have wanted to build a long rifle for more than fifty years.
