I am working with my friend and his dad to write a project journal and post a build thread.

On the second stock, the one for my Wife's rifle, it is being designed with a lot of experience gained. Different ergonomic considerations. Improved CAD skills. It is optimistic on my part, but i think this one might even be easier.
Beautiful work!
maybe you can route a channel and embed a metal spline (or whatever it is called) to the wood strength and keep the current design.
