Tell her to get on the bike for a paper runs to cover your day off and she's got a deal :)

Photos of finished stock and assembled rifle - My daughter is nicknamed "Squeaker" hence the "Squeakinator" on the stock.

Things I would do different:
1. start off with better quality ply
2. Find a better quality but pad
3. Learn how to use body filler better for an improved surface finish

Daughter is happy so it cant be too bad.

That's pretty cool, good job mate! I can imagine she would be pretty happy with that!

Yeah, she is over the moon. We should be taking it out to the range on Sunday - the club captain will spew ("guns aren't meant to be pink") and one of the lady shooters already wants her hubby to do something similar for her.
No to think of the next project - maybe a silhouette specific stock for my CZ......
