Ruddigger Sr Member Aug 21, 2014 #22 I was picturing a cream colored bakelite stock. This build is right up my alley, great job. Now I have another thing on my to-do list.

the DOCTOR Sr Member Aug 21, 2014 #23 All paint dry, so a dry run: Looking good to me, though I might add some more paint here and there. Also, this thing has FOUR settings: Admittedly, setting 'I' is "OFF", but that's still a setting, ok?

nick daring Master Member RPF PREMIUM MEMBER Aug 22, 2014 #27 The faux bakelite is stunning! I think I like yours better than the Weta version. The understated design is cooler than the "crap everywhere" style of the original Weta version. True Deco. Great project.

superjedi Sr Member Aug 22, 2014 #29 Fantastic! I've attempted faux wood graining, but that stock looks amazing! :thumbsup
N2darkness Sr Member Aug 22, 2014 #30 Looks great! A few thin braided cables or plumbing hoses would also really add to the look.
