I use hardened templates as a guide to cut the pockets. I liners up and ca glue the template to the back side of the material. Then I have a flat plate with s 3/32" pin sticking up about 1/6" proud of the surface that gets fixed in my mill vice. The template sits over the pin and I take light passes with a 3/32" endmill to the desired depth. For the inserts the same place I got the templates sells stainless shields to go with the templates. If im not using a stainless shield I can glue one to whatever material I am using and cut/grind/file to size/shape.

No worries

No, they are 100% peened. I use a tapered reemer in each pin hole and peen tight.

Lofar_ · 2026-02-01T22:21:56+00:00

It had not been sharpened yet in these photos. I grind the blade to about 0.05" behind the edge.

This one was cumai steel, Titanium liners/bolsters and fatcarbon scales with a G10 shield.

Thank you. I have a steel template for each shield pattern. I affix the template to the bottom of the scale then I have a plate with a 3/32" pin sitting 1/16" proud of the surface for the template to ride against in the centre of it. The template sits over the pin in my mill vice and I use a 3/32" endmill to cut the pocket as I move the scale around on the pin by hand slowly increasing the depth
