[Woodcarver] chat and a gun stock carving question

[Linehan718 at aol.com]

wow  look at all the different topics going on on this list.  I  think Bill 
lit a fire under our butts.  okay well, in keeping with the  spirit of things,  
i am going to ask a question...............okay here  goes..................
 
I recently ordered a gun stock (walnut) so that I could try carving  one.  I 
could wing it but figured it would be better to be guided by a book  or video 
for my first practice one.  okay now I have about a 15-20$ budget  for this.  
does anyone have any suggestions, I know that there are  different books out 
there.  have you used any, what do you reccomend. does  anyone have a copy 
they'd like to sell (or trade) me?  I would kinda like  one that covers most of 
the basics from checkering to scroll work to custom  scenes.  Any Ideas for me?  
thanks
 
any general tips on carving gunstocks will also be appreciated
