Hey Guy's, I am getting ready to mount a tip and cap on my next project. I have a great piece of Rosewood to use. I can't find a resource for the "white spacer". I have looked on Brownells and Midway, no luck. Am I just missing them. Anyone have a resource of were to get white space material. Thanks Ralph

Last ones I made I cut from a white 5 gallon bucket.

If you want thinner spacers you can use plastic from a bleach bottle.

I'm surprised Brownnells or Midway doesn't carry them, both places used to.

You might want to try wood veneer, available from the Marquetry supply houses, holly or maple make good spacers. Also basswood, available at Lowe's or Home Depot.

If you have seen any of the rifles our currently absent member Z1R had made. He adds the tip without any spacer. Never done it myself so I don't know how difficult it might be but it is something to consider. Come on Z. I know you check in occasionally, how about speaking up!!
