Carving A Handmade Maple Wood Stock 20 hours in 15 mintues!

[@rollmodelbjj]

People who don’t woodwork don’t understand just how impressive this is

[@craigleibbrand7761]

You're absolutely right about that

[@Dallastexas1215]

Honestly I know little about woodworking, and even less about gunsmithing, but i know attention to detail , it comes along with my OCD. I can appreciate that type of effort, and most importantly the dedication to see something like that through to the end. That was amazing to watch. You are indeed a master at your craft, much respect. And thank you KZbin for having an algorithm with some damn taste! Glad this one popped up.

[@RookieLock]

That was amazing, As some one who has tried a bit of caving, I know this is no where as easy as it looks. You did an absolutely great job buddy!

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks

[@tselinsky6452]

Amazing hands! Watched every second with awe.

[@Andre_VDBergh]

I tell you this friend. for someone that knows what it is to work with wood and painstakingly using hand tools like a chisel and hammer to carve out the pieces for the gunparts to fit is absolutely incredible... congradulations you deserve a medal sir

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks, much appreciated

[@barstad-9591]

That tiger maple is tough wood to work with, especially for such an involved project. You did a fantastic job; it’s beautiful.

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks, yeah, it wasn't the easiest thing in the world to work with. A lot of tear outs!

[@craigleibbrand7761]

Maple was one of the finest gunstock woods in the world.

[@craigleibbrand7761]

Beautiful craftsmanship love tiger tail maple

[@MB-hs4vp]

Well, gotta go find some maple now. Good on you for doing it completely by feel. Very impressive.

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks, took way to long!

[@MiBurnout]

What a work of art!! I tip my hat to you sir.. amazing stock you created.. just gorgeous

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thank you kindly

[@joesinegal8167]

A True Master Craftsman At Work! Thanks For Sharing Your Journey While Creating Your Masterpiece Stock! It Was Very Inspiring!

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks, much appreciated.

[@emilbeeg4550]

Excellent work and loved the time lapse.

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.

[@aidanmosman6916]

Wow. Didn’t think they could be made by hand. Great work

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks

[@bawspetdomainsllc7450]

Great work love the music and no voice over. keep showing what your good at if shows your passion!

[@battlebuddy4390]

this, this is art.

[@craigleibbrand7761]

I would love a stock just like that LEFT HAND Weatherby Mark 5. Ebony tip and cap.

[@airgunnerxf9157]

Absolutely incredible. Nice work

[@prinzeugenvansovoyen732]

how are the tool at 11:35 and the washer like scraper for the barrel bed called? i have planned to make a left hand wooden folding stock (like the wermacht Paratroopers K98) for my Mauser M48 for a long time

[@precisionmachineshed]

This is the barrel bedding tool. amzn.to/2CUxCJd The other is a Shinto Saw Rasp. Here's two different ones. amzn.to/2MGe8fE amzn.to/2FWl87W

[@robertturner2172]

Wow is all i can say. Thank you for sharing. Beyond impressive.

[@precisionmachineshed]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@sigha2b2t]

This is the best video of this kind I’ve ever seen, amazing job - I love watching you do this properly rather than with a jig & router

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks, much appreciated.

[@greggjohnson7667]

friggin' incredible! Amazing work sir!

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks

[@mattjohnston5807]

Awesome job. That maple feels like carving stone sometimes lol👍

[@precisionmachineshed]

Yeah, it wasn't the easiest thing to work with.

[@bjoe74fm]

A beautiful piece of wood, made to a spectacular stock, very well done

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks! Well worth the effort.

[@Bones6987]

Be nice to know what he used For the finish on the wood

[@thetacticaltauntaun4788]

Where do you get the bolt action and barrel set?

[@precisionmachineshed]

This was a rifle that I re-stocked.

[@hairyknuckle8603]

Gonna do a build like this. Any advice working with this maple?

[@PracticalRenaissance]

amazing work! Very satisfying to watch

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks, much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed it! Great work on your end too! Keep it up!

[@haivlog6797]

Practical Renaissan

[@johndoe1765]

YOUR VERY INSPIRATIONAL ,BEAUTIFUL WORK AND I LIKE YOUR CREATIVITY AND ALSO YOUR FORTITUDE ,GREAT VIDEO THANK YOU .

[@craigleibbrand7761]

Can you install crossbolts.

[@charleswebb5797]

Beautiful craftsmanship !

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks

[@shinigami117s8]

What’s that goopy stuff put on the metal ? And the other goopy stuff into the stock, then sandwiched together ?

[@BenDover-jl6vd]

Is it possible for that front receiver to have any more holes in it.

[@808fishman8]

the optic bases dont stay tight for nothing

[@precisionmachineshed]

It was like this when I got it, many times gunsmiths switch base styles or update old bases for newer one with different spacing. Three holes are also drilled when pinning bases.

[@craigleibbrand7761]

Love Maple Great looking stock

[@craigleibbrand7761]

I like the lines of the stock.

[@earlgateman3755]

If you make up some long headless action bolts you can drill those holes first, and use them to guide the metal down into the wood. Much of the roughing out can be done by measurements.

[@precisionmachineshed]

Yeah, I do have to stuff to make some custom guides, just have not done it yet. Next time I do one of these, I will be using a saw, and cutting out larger chunks with a lot of smaller cuts.

[@williebulletman5217]

Great work I don’t have the patiencez or knowledge to be able to do that .Out of a peace of Beautiful wood out standing sir you do great wood work . you did a outstanding job just great I love the color of that wood can’t say enough about it thank you for sharingC

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@marlonalvarez3991]

hello I just want to ask the materials you use in this one , I'm trying to build one for my airsoft sniper rifle

[@evanodwyer153]

You would want to use some sort of hardwood eg. Walnut, oak, mohogony

[@marlonalvarez3991]

thank you..

[@evanodwyer153]

Nb

[@precisionmachineshed]

This is Maple.

[@johnvaness8445]

Lovely work!

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks! much appreciated.

[@piplup10203854]

Man this is so cool! I’d absolutely love to try something like this if I could have someone teach me. I’d love to make a 22LR bolt action rifle out of like a Bolivian Rosewood stock ☺️ with a fluted barrel and all that. Dream rifle right there for me.

[@souleater307]

nice music i was jamin out the entire time. and i love how everything in your shop moves. like the table and belt sander wanted to run away from you. lol

[@precisionmachineshed]

Only the tools I used for this video were somewhat mobile. Most of my machines weight in the 1-2,000 lbs range.

[@anzov1n]

Thank you for sharing. What substance are you applying to the stock at 7:59-8:06?

[@precisionmachineshed]

For the finish, it's Pro-Custom Gunstock oil.

[@anzov1n]

Thanks. At which point in the video did you apply the bedding compound?

[@ANDYMCNET]

First time here on this channel but really nice work and I presume that was midnight oil the lamp was burning there? "made me chuckle" ❤

[@precisionmachineshed]

Several times.

[@Ostseepilker]

Toll gemacht und wunderschön, aber so viel Arbeit???

[@ccuc22]

It is a labor of love. I used to make gunstocks like that too. Now, I would use a vertical mill to rough out , but still finish using hand chisels. It would take me three days to finish a stock, at 5 hours a day.

[@precisionmachineshed]

Yeah, not sure I'll do many more of these, and there are some shortcuts I've since learned that will speed it way up next time.

[@nicholaselliot5583]

Beautiful work

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks

[@airgunnerxf9157]

Make another gun stock video? Maybe? I would definitely stick around to watch

[@iwosnova7869]

Hi great work, can someone tell me what song that is at 5:21 ? Would be nice thx.

[@el_strapone2455]

Puddle of Infinity Grass

[@iwosnova7869]

DJ_Mandarinka thx

[@zohairghullam5131]

Great video. A labour of love and well worth the effort. Thanks for sharing.

[@precisionmachineshed]

No problem. It sure took long enough!

[@craigleibbrand7761]

You're Damm right it's worth the effort.

[@adampaniczko8198]

Badass ,I love it great job man. Im going to take a crack at it, what type of wood did you use and dimensions of the that you started with? Thank you if you could help me out with that part ? This is the exact thumbhole stock I want to make . knight makes that almost exact stock that you made for my muzzleloaders.

[@precisionmachineshed]

Was Maple, Didn't start with any dimensions outside of LOP.

[@johnschall3013]

Bro, you are amazing.

[@precisionmachineshed]

Much appreciated.

[@Killer_Space_2726-GCP]

Would I be able to carve a stock with a pistol grip this way, or would that be too much of a weak point?

[@precisionmachineshed]

Depends on what type of wood and how much wood you are willing to leave.

[@Killer_Space_2726-GCP]

@@precisionmachineshed Any recommendations on the type of wood? I have large hands, so I could have a decently sized pistol grip with lots of material.

[@stevejr5544]

That was fun and educational to watch. It looks like you used basic shop tools. Am I correct?

[@precisionmachineshed]

Yes, I did use some spendy swiss chisels and gouges, but for that most part, yes basic tools. Just takes time more than anything.

[@savage69000]

Great work!

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks,

[@scottgorman7166]

Good job...what wood did you use for the grip cap and end cap? Is the glue line down the center of the stock? I have some beautiful Birds Eye Maple ( not big enough for a stock unless I laminate) and was wondering if the seam is down the middle and did you use epoxy or wood glue to laminate? Thanks Precision

[@precisionmachineshed]

It was a "roasted fiddleback maple" very dry stuff, man made. This stock was made from 3 boards so there's two glue lines towards each side. I believe I used an outdoor Woodtite glue that was waterproof. Glued the hell out of each piece and then put as many clamps as possible on there. My glue lies are very tight. They have not moved in over 6 years before I finished it.

[@renelopez2244]

Bro, that's awesome

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks!

[@paulvenn4447]

Interesting, looks like a Geoff Slee design!

[@precisionmachineshed]

I'll have to look that up. My thoughts when I did it were vintage Fajen Rheinhart crossed with a safari type rifle.

[@randysparks1271]

Might be a stupid suggestion but if you offered a class on carving rifle stocks I'd love to do it

[@precisionmachineshed]

Possibile at some point.

[@baggd65]

You are a TRUE CRAFTSMAN....

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks!

[@Sickofsociety1]

Please tell me what the second song was? I liked them all and really nice work!

[@TechnoNinjaAlex]

So if it didn’t sit for 8 years would you still need to dry the wood first?

[@precisionmachineshed]

I'm not sure the moisture content changed much since I got it. It would however be a good idea to let it dry add long as possible after you glue it to let the wood/glue stabilize a little.

[@craigleibbrand7761]

I believe the action is Rem model 30.S. Caliber could very well be a 375 H & H.

[@precisionmachineshed]

Was a 1917 Enfield and it was a 338 WM.

[@juanbrown5204]

This is incredible, how’d u get into this profession tho

[@precisionmachineshed]

Wifes grandfather was a master gunsmith, after building several rifles with him, he passed away and I kept doing stuff myself trying to better my last project every time. A bunch of research, talking to the right people and asking questions, and practice tends to hone the skills.

[@Mateusestrela]

Uma verdadeira obra de arte 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@gilliesiut2332]

This is gorgeous.

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks, much appreciated.

[@gilliesiut2332]

Precision Machine Shed did you use any lacquer on it? If so what did you use?

[@precisionmachineshed]

I used Pro-Custom Gunstock oil. Arrow Wood finish is also a good one.

[@jbpmidas]

Fantastic work!!!

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks!

[@layze1799]

I NEED TO KNOW the name of the song that starts at 5:20 pleaseeee

[@el_strapone2455]

Puddle of Infinity Grass

[@darkov5515]

Wow nice carving 10stars :D

[@WhiteChevy4.8]

Very nice

[@silviasilvia4271]

Owh nice projec next build airgun stock wood 😍😍😍

[@precisionmachineshed]

Haha... I know there are some crazy stock builders out there for air guns. Something I have never really gotten into, but I do have some critters eating my garden so maybe that's a good excuse to get one!

[@jokosaputrasaputra3335]

Airgun stock wood broo bullpup

[@thinetaco3722]

Damn that’s beautiful

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks!

[@jimosborn4000]

Very nice job.

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thank you!

[@taylormunson3605]

Amazing

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks

[@weirhauch1002]

Great work !! What wood is that?

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks, It's maple.

[@CanadaQKG]

Remarkable.

[@georgechambers3197]

Beautiful work. Nothing else to say!

[@precisionmachineshed]

Much appreciated.

[@clangerbasher]

I watched a 2 x speed and it was awesome. The music sounded great too. :)

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks, I tried to compress it as much as possible when I originally did it.

[@clangerbasher]

I did it on a whim really. I just wanted to see how it looked even faster. And as I said the odd thing was the music didn't sound off even though sped up. Lovely job.

[@precisionmachineshed]

Cool, I do it on a lot of videos too.

[@clangerbasher]

Well if they show say sports (or anything) on TV in slow motion I will use the slow motion feature on the PVR to slow it down further. It is interesting what the eye picks up when playing about with tech.

[@kylegilmore3810]

+clangerbasher For future use, you can use the "," and "." keys when a video is paused to skip frame by frame.

[@tompalmer334]

I did a stock looks some what like this one used a Mauser action a 247 barrel this was about 32 years ago I have used it so much needs to be refinished never finished the action and barrel I will get her polished and find a place who can give me a shiner black blueing than I am capable of

[@precisionmachineshed]

That's cool. A deep bluing job makes all the difference in my opinion.

[@wearytraveler3524]

Very pretty! How does it shoot?

[@precisionmachineshed]

I actually have not shot it yet. I will have to get it out this summer and do some load work on it.

[@kennerfx]

Hey, that looks great! I wanna make myself one for my Airsoft Rifle, what Tool is that what you're using for Forming the Stock ? Thanks!

[@kennerfx]

Is it a Handheld Wood Planer ?

[@LifeOnHoth]

It looks like a "japanese rasp" and a hand planer. you can use any kinda fine or coarse rasps and planers and sandpaper. Whatever gets the wood shaped the way u want it. Bitd it is said that stocks was made mostly with rasps and scrapers. Obviously, chisels also.

[@alexyouknowwhoitis2169]

Probably would have been 15 hours if you had a proper heavy bench and vise lol. Looks great, good job!

[@precisionmachineshed]

Probably.

[@robertrandin9568]

Dude I think a Dremel tool would help you a lot

[@davidbingen2377]

You need to get or make a proper woodworking bench, one that doesn’t walk around when you are working on a project. Great finished project! ...David

[@precisionmachineshed]

Yeah I know.... It's coming. Thanks

[@robertturner2172]

Looks like the nench did its job.

[@skiptracer8703]

Very nice work, Thanks for sharing .. Jim

[@precisionmachineshed]

No problem. Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Edgunsuk]

Bravo sir !

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks

[@Rigzly23]

Just out of curiosity, did you whisker the stock before applying the finish? Also very nice looking final product.

[@precisionmachineshed]

I didn't for no other reason than I actually forgot until after I got the first coat on. It's been a while since I finished a stock.

[@rondionne4191]

Remington mod. 30?

[@precisionmachineshed]

M1917 Enfield.

[@turkyalzahrani2378]

Precision Machine Shed hello my friend,, im looking forward to talk to you as soon as u can ,, i have an offer u may be interested in 👍🏻

[@randysparks1271]

Step by step instructions video? I'd love to make a mannlicher type stock out of Osage orange

[@Rechkalov7]

Imagine working that hsrd and at the end you see a huge crack in the wood

[@precisionmachineshed]

That would not be cool.

[@deadlysrestorations]

That's what epoxy and sawdust is for.

[@kyawhein9408]

How much for gun I want to buy

[@precisionmachineshed]

I no longer have it.

[@baggd65]

Where can i find your leather apron at?

[@precisionmachineshed]

It's a black heavy canvas apron. I would like to get a nice leather one, but never wanted to spend the money.

[@barstad-9591]

Jay Bates and The Wood Whisperer both wear leather aprons from a place that customizes them. I can’t recall the name of the company, but I’m sure it will be listed on their descriptions pages under tools they each use or you could email them.

[@barstad-9591]

Precision Machine Shed Beautiful stock! Thanks for sharing all of your hard work.

[@baggd65]

ok, thank you.

[@Pakkerotten]

Damm impressive

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks

[@rayfalcone6897]

very satisfying to watcher piece of art......

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks, much appreciated.

[@neuterednations9566]

Fantastic workmanship, however if you trip whilst holding that stock you could break or dislocate if not sprain your thumb

[@precisionmachineshed]

As a Doctor, I would disagree with that statement, It is possible I suppose, but anatomically speaking, you are more likely to fall on the ground and jam or dislocated your thumb by hitting rough or uneven terrain. Unless you are carrying your rifle in expectation or taking a shot, you are more likely to be walking around with one of these with a sling. 99% of the time, that's how I carry them.

[@panchovilla1486]

Real nice

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks!

[@1jtolvey]

GREAT VIDEO !

[@precisionmachineshed]

Thanks, much appreciated.

[@donniewagner4657]

Do you always make stocks or is this just another project

[@precisionmachineshed]

I've made a few, not usually done all by hand though.

[@rickmelhuish1602]

Wow dude

[@noahrodeghiero9640]

You need a more stable table... but very nice work, i love the end product

[@precisionmachineshed]

I know, I do, but didn't want to get wood chips all over my other bench ( full of other projects)

[@marciofernandesdasilvarodr8501]
