Alright guys so this is my first build and im going to need alot of help to achieve the best. and with all your experience im sure you could do just that :)
I plan to make it around a 1m or 90cm with 2 powerbands 10cm over the end of stock shaft sea hornet trigger wooden handle.
PART 1 - The Stock
So ive got a 4x4 block of Cedar.

Im going to be doing a 'T' Configuration. A 1cm horizontal piece and three 2cm vertical pieces.
Please Note: This will take a few months to finish. so i will not post until ive got my wood cutup. then im going to let it dry and warp for 1 month. The i will plane it streight and then glue it together with epoxy. i will post picturs of that, then i will leave it for a month and then you will see the build in progress.

As this is my first build i will need advice. so if you think im doing something wrong dont hesitate to tell me as it will be better for me :)

cheers
Jayke
