It should be no more than about 1/8" around the lock and can taper out a little more towards the beaver tail at the rear. Yep, thats one of the items that still need to be addressed. Dad is really good at following lines and using tools, but struggles with seeing shapes in his head and making them in the wood. He has me help with that by looking at the stocks as he progresses.

He is about and hour and a half away, so he drives there to pick them out. Start getting parts now. Prices are increasing fast and the supply is very tight.
