I have seen some DIY's stickies on other forums that are really good. If you have not already looked. If you can't find any let me know. Youtube as well.

Is 3.76 plus shipping cheap enough. I may have an extra sheet but shipping would eat us up.

I made one for my Mark II from some 3" PVC. I slit the pipe and flattened it in the oven, then cut out the pattern I wanted, reheated and molded it to the shape of the stock.

Would everyone please welcome our newest Savage Axis addict.....

He even works on his rifle in the kitchen. On the table, too.

Yup, you're going to fit right in here.....

Looking good.

I started with a cheek rest and have now rebuilt the entire rifle!

I just put a SSS fluted bolt body to finish it. The only thing I haven't changed is the action itself!

Yeah but, did you do it on the kitchen table? That proves the Axis owners mettle....

I rebuilt my chainsaw on the kitchen table. There's a hole in the sheet rock about the same diameter as my head. The 'lil woman was not too happy about it.


(PS - The hole wasn't from the chainsaw.)

I did it in the garage because I built the tables there myself!

Looks good, kid.

Again, with the kitchen table, eh?

You really ought to consider a bench. The bench is sacred to men that make their own projects especially guns & reloading. If you work on guns in the kitchen - AT the table, this automatically gives the wife permission to fold laundry on your bench. Maybe even set up a sewing machine on your bench.

If word gets out your man card may be suspended.
