Wow. I would love to see that done with highly figured quilted maple. On a hunting rifle. It would be so cool that game animals would be mesmerized and just walk towards it.

This would be a great hunting rifle color, I'm anxiously waiting for someone to ask for it.

Can you get a rifle blank with figure like that? If so, let’s talk.

Contact @jghoghunter ,Jesse might have something.
@JBO Is the owner of the red stock pictured, he might have a lead on a quality blank. We're already discussing his next build. Lol

Brett,
You have once again set the bar even higher. I like that stock in some ways better than the two you did for me!
Great job as usual.

Now that guitar is really something. That wood is unbelievable - looks like waves on a pond,very 3D. Impressive, most impressive.

Thanks Lloyd, but your red 1 is no slouch.
Now your blonde stock that Doan built we can work with, as long as some of your bacon's are involved.

That's my favorite.
My brother in law builds custom guitars, that's 1 of his creations. He's where I learned the dye process with the polyester coatings for first stock I did for @JBO.

Oh my! That’s gotta be my favorite. I would LOVE to see that in a blue!!

Not a great pic but my others wouldnt load. Matt

 

[dkhunt14]

The red is really nice. I did the blue and been thinking orange for the next one. Matt

That looks like 1 of Jesse's boat paddle stocks??
I'm doing a Anschutz now with brown,copper, vintage amber that will get orange candy over it before clear.
Orange dye for main color and yellow as a secondary color would be pretty hot!

The blank was from the guy that made the original. He was my buddy and i helped him learn the 1000 yard BR game. I used Keda wood dye. First I did black and sanded it all off and then used blue. Matt

Looks great!
I'm using aneline dyes from Stewmac diluted with water.
The stock I posted was 2 coats black, 2and coat diluted to 2/3 strength after sanding 1st coat, followed with 3 coats of cherry red sanding between coats, last coat was 1/2 strength un sanded.
After prepping transparent primer I applied 3 coats of apple red candy to camouflage a repair in the stock where dye didn't set in glue line.
Finished with 6 coats of polyester clear.

Brett,on some scrap figured maple;

Hit the bare wood with over reduced black dye. Sand it back,repeat.

Then,go to the color.

Gorgeous stock BTW.

ETA: Haha,didn't get to your last reply when I posted. Just goes to show,read first.... engage brain.

I'd like to do 1 in all black.
When I hit this thing with the 2nd coat of black at 2/3 strength, it was very sexy tacticool. I'm thinking if a fella was to sand and apply a couple more coats of black with varying strength of dye he'd have a spectacular look.

Really looking forward to seeing this stock on the firing line shortly. Told Jim I'm going to make him take the barreled action out of the stock so I can see the pink initials!
