So in April I posted a thread in /k/ about refinishing the flaking shellac on my Mosin, and most of the responses I got was bitching about how I was ruining the conductibility of the most common variant of the second most produced gun ever, in the world.
Aside form that I actually got some good responses and it turned out pretty nice, so I figured thos epeople might be interested in how it turned out. With some help from /diy/ I settled on using high voltage to burn the wood stock and when i cleaned out the cosmo and shellac the wood ended up being a nice blonde. I filled the burns with an epoxy resin with an ultraviolet reactive resin. I think it turned out pretty nice.
Also Mods you've done to your own guns, or wood furniture thread.

Lied actually the last pic
Mmmm. Looks just like your mom's spider veins.
>UV reactive
Show it under a blacklight.
How did you do the burns? That's interesting... I probably would have gone with an amber shellac though...
>>30302692
As always, quality responses during summertime
>>30302709
Not surprisingly its really hard to get a good pic of a thing glowing in the black-light, but this is the best I gots.
>>30302709
Heres another
Why is your nugget fucked like that again?
Is your gun a heroin addict?
I really hate that nugget stocks look so good once stripped and refinished, blonde wood on guns is my fetish. But alas, my fetish for milsurp is greater.

High voltage bitch! A better explanation is that I took apart a microwave i found on the side of the road, and using the high voltage transformer from it, the power cord from it, and a pair of jumper cables I couldve totally killed myself.
But I didnt and made those burns instead, 2000+ volts man, if you try this (Dont try this) and you put your electrical leads too close together (dont do that) or <3 inches close, itll arc and scare the shit out of you. And that arc is quite literally what an arc welder is. Its also a way to make a shitty arc welder.
Pic related is my set up.

But my blonde sexy wood is on a milsurp nugget? I thought it would be a cool way to dick around my 150$ gun. Now its mine and it always will be.
>>30302987
>But my blonde sexy wood is on a milsurp nugget
yeah, but you fugged it, and now its no longer correct.
Also $150 is too much, but you should consider it a $250 gun now anyways.
Or rather could have, before you nuked it.
>>30302965
I dont know if that's completely retarded or badass. Either way, cool rifle.
>>30303054
First gun, now its obscenely un-sellable and personalized. I dont think i care about resell value now.
Technically, though. just as a note. The stocks arent serial'd, so I could be a huge nigger and sell all the other hardware which is still factory accurate, with some stock I got off ebay.
>>30303113
Well I lived, so I wanna say badass, i dont think its retarded if it works, and i didnt get hurt.
>>30302046
Most people here don't advocate modifying milsurp, regardless of what it is so it's doubtful you'll get many replies from people.
There used to be a tripfag named Erik the Red who posted here and did very similar modifications to his guns. He cut up his mosin like you wouldn't believe, covered it in barbed wire, added a heat shield, called it his fallout mosin. He also burned wolverines into his SKS complete with the silhouette of the kid holding his rifle over his head. It's a shame he doesn't post here any more, he has some great photos of himself going innadesert.
>>30302046
Good to now the name stuck anon. Its still looking pretty awesome.
>>30303336
Props bro, that was a great name if it was you who said it.
looks good
>>30303273
>Innadesert
What desert?
>>30303273
I remember those threads, he did make some stuff that was interesting to see, but not something I'd like to do myself.
Always good to see people trying new things though, there's not enough new stuff coming out and seeing oddball projects keeps things from being too stale
Timber is nice.
That soft pad at the back is disgusting tbqh
>>30305150
>Fallout
>Wolverines
>Which desert
You don't use your head for much, do ya?
>>30307033
Hooooly shit, that looks cool. Ive never seen anything on here about him must've been before i came on.
I love my nugget
>>30302071
I think you should finish up your paint job on that wall before you post anymore
>>30308105
He was also the guy that owned pic related. Tons of offers were made on it, but no one ever bought it to my knowledge
>>30308422

>>30303165
I hate that people are so upset over the "investment" that everything is. Good on ya for making it your own.

>>30302902
I think its fucking cool anon. Good work. You plan on selling htat?
>>30310192
Probably not, if someone offered me stupid money id probs do it, but im not asking for offers. If I sold id probs just do it again. But thanks for the compliment, as I said its my first gun, and first gun project, so its got some sentimentality.
>>30310122
thats some cool shit
