Cheek inlay installed and engraved the barrel:

We inlayed the eagle inlay on the check. Due to the previous engraving, we soldered a no. 4 screw on to the  back of the inlay, bored a hole into the stock and then epoxied the inlay onto the cheek of the rifle. The epoxy was rated to be good down to -40 degrees.  This seated the inlay really well and held fast to the stock. 

  Then I engraved Brian's name on the top flat of the rifle and numbered the rifle, "No. 1". 

The name he chose for the rifle was "SEMPER FIDELIS", since Brian was a former Marine.  

Since the patch box needed to be burnished, Brian learned how to do this and gave it a mirror finish. You can almost see him in the image of taking the photo. I really shined up well. 

Now we are ready to stain the stock and apply the oil.
