Jon Hutty 0 Posted January 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 I live in hull phil it was actually for study purposes first then i purchased the book and your right it is all about the tools. Like anything if you want to start to create or build something everyone has to start from scratch. I will buy the inexpensive tools first of all like rasps and so on. I have the use of a drill press band saw dremel multi tool chisels the only main item i haven't got use of at the moment is a hobby metal lathe to do the metal work with like the action and so on. But has i have been told if you want to make my own pneumatic from start to finish that means stock aswell. And a couple of the guys i talk too who make custom stocks have told me when starting a stock draw a rough outline of the stock you want too shape and then start with the in-letting. Has they have told me if i cannot complete the in-letting it is pointless in carrying on with the project i would be just wasting my time and money. So i am going to buy some poplar has its fairly cheap easy to work on and good for practising. If you do not get it write the first time. So i hope this answers your question thx for your reply.
