Title: New ILF riser project
Post by: grouse11 on October 12, 2014, 03:03:00 PM
Okay, So I've been asking some questions about this project I'm working on and figured I would take some pics and share. I am terrible with taking pics and always forget to do it during the process. It is all wood, African Mahogany, SOme sort of Rosewood in the limb pads and in the I-beams, and an unknown wood in the curved laminations (can't really see them but should once it is finished)

I also made some deer heart tacos from the doe I shot last weekend  :)  mixed together tomatoes, red onions, cilantro and lime juice and warmed some pitas in the oven, they were delicious

First time I saw those, they are the cats meow for sure.    Does Jim Mann have a website...?

Unfortunately not, he makes these in his machine shop. He doesn't frequent this site much, goes by Mann, but is on POA a good bit, where he goes by the same name.
