Format
This is the format of the exercise:
- The objective is to build a wooden or wood based gun to show piece standards.
- The type of gun to be built will be chosen in the poll above.
- Other features such as the materials, handle position, trigger type etc. etc can be discussed in this thread. From the information received suitable materials will be chosen and purchased (obviously some choices may be restricted by availability).
- A new thread will then be opened and will feature the step by step cataloguing of the guns manufacture. Simple enough but here's the good bit: You the members will be able to contribute ideas and make decisions regarding the guns finer details and design. Again this will be within the bounds of sensibility and practicality but remember the aim is to build a gun like no other. An ambitious goal but the result will depend on you.
- Finally you will be given the chance to win this gun in a DeeperBlue competition after it's completion. So the more you contribute the more like your dream gun this will be.
