Here are a couple more pics of stock work. Removing wood is a pain and I am not good with a draw knife or a hatchet as in Alvin's case. LOL In the first pic I milled the grip area thickness to size on both sides while maintaining the center line stock reference. In the next I establish a taper from the butt plate to the grip and milled the wood flat. At this stage the name of the game is remove the "overburden" as quickly as you can while feeling comfortable. Now comes lots of work with a cabinet rasp.
