The whole thing measures 31cm in lenght, bends smoothly to a 18cm draw, and, despite its mighty 8# weight, is obviously stockless and therefore pointless.
Today, some more filing and chiselling turned into a wee little roller nut.
Next step is to carve out a pistol stock out of some sapele i have lying around...
Any advice on designing the trigger and/or the stock is most welcome!

The prod!

The tiny nut!

And the tiniest sear plate.
