Here is a project I finally finished. Turned a Boyd’s laminate stock into a lightweight wood/composite hybrid on the cheap. Improved ergonomics to my exact liking and weights exactly the same as the plastic factory stock.
Hogged out a bunch of the stock with a router. Reinforced the grip/butt/fore end with carbon arrow shaft. Filled the cavities with a super strong poly urethane foam called Foam it 8 by smoothon. Sanded/shaped the stock. Then coated in a brushable epoxy, made by smoothon. The texture grip is JB weld, dabbed on with a sponge. The paint is duracote
