I've been dressing some old floorboards I pulled out of a brothel (or "whoreboards" as the 17 yr old has nicknamed them!)

First project has been to make a scope for the scope.

A few more coats of varnish and a cradle for the scope to sit on and it should be done.

Here's a few progress shots

Another photo

Note- seems like the iPad likes to display the thumbnails upside down but the full picture the right way round...?

Looks solid and heavy! I made mine out of 9mm ply.

Actually not that heavy.

Here's the timber i started with - 1" boards buzzed down to 15mm
