I have searched high and low for what used to be a sticky. Can anyone tell me what happened to wnroscoe's glass bedding post. I'm about to start my first bedding job and wanted to reference that post.
 
I'm a big William Roscoe fan, but all his stuff is gone off this site, and his web page no longer exsist when I did s google search. I don't know why, and I'm not one to assume. If anyone knows why, I'd like to know. I have a few video on the subject if it will help you. Go to my YouTube channel and look for it there. I'm not where I can attach the direct link for you.

Okay, I figured on how to get you to the first one. You can look for the rest by name, just add parts 2,3,4..ect
 
Here's the 1st video by STR on the bedding job. I watched it several days ago, he is very informative and thorough!


Rifle bedding 1 - YouTube
This gentleman's eight part video was extremely helpful to me when I recently bedded a 700 action into a Manners stock. I watched the whole eight part series 3 times before I made a move. It turned out fantastic by the way, my first bedding job.

FYI, I don't have a mill, so I did all of the clean up with files, sandpaper, and a Dremel. Still turned out great. Not as pretty but just as functional.

I am very grateful for the excellent instructional vids..

glad to hear you are still the helpful you!

this forum has been a bit quiet and short on tech lately. a few of the "OG" regular tech posters have been silent for a while now.

Besides the fact that William Roscoe is an awesome rifle builder, this is another reason I'm such a big fan of the guy. Thank you William, and truly glad to know all is well with you.
