Lol, nope on the dove tail. The wood is buckeye burl.

[Jermdog01]

It's easy

[Kevin Smith]

I've done it, that looks good. But doing it on both ends will be a challenge for me.

[Kevin Smith]

It looks like you have some gaps under the bolsters?

[Jermdog01]

I know both ends would be a nightmare

[Jermdog01]

yup

It looks like you have some gaps under the bolsters?

My plan is 1900 degrees for 15 minutes, plate quench, and a 425 temper twice for 1 hour.

I'm also going to do my first cryo with alcohol and dry ice.
