Thank you JDW. Yes, I design my own checkering patterns and just draw them on the stock with a "china marker'. Thanks to a good friend of mine I now have china markers in all the important colors (black,white, red and yellow). I know there are other methods to draw patterns on stocks but i've been doing it this way for so long I just can't see myself changing.
The three handles in the center are W.E. Brownell "full view" handles that I've used for many years. I use Gunline tips in these handles and am pretty happy with them. As Mark Stokeld says the W.E.Brownells cutters that you can buy now are garbage. The tool with the engravers handle on it is a file that I ground the tip to a 45 degree angle and I use it to make and clean out mullered borders with.
