neanderthal, seems like a good place to try.
I used a cnc to cut the barrel and ramrod channel.
oops, cut outside the line in one area of ramrod. I now have a 7/8 inch channel instead of 3/8. I can find some more maple for a plug. Grain running same direction?, attempt to use a somewhat matching straight grain ( to match moisture expansion)?
I suppose I'll chisel the pocket to square corners, but I know my plug wont fit real well. I dont think saw dust and epoxy will take stain real well. Maybe I will just go with a clear finish and hope for the best. By the time I shave stock to finish, I'm not expecting plugg to show a lot, but glue joint in corners will.
any suggestions before its to late?
