For 5.00 and postage you could have got a new Ruger solid rubber butt plate like a no 1 wears, from Numrich.

Nice little project. Will the paint hold up and not chip or fill in the serrations you will be cutting?

What? No Drywall screws holding it on?

Nice work!

I did find a source for the screws. Blacksmith Bolt and Rivet Supply (http://www.blacksmithbolt.com/gpage9.html).

My, that is some nice work. I love the contrast with the dark wood. Beautiful.

Aluminum is not the easiest to get paint to stick to unless you alodine or anodize it first. For best adhesion of bare aluminum some etching process needs to be performed.
That looks really nice. I hope you will step back with the camera and post a pic of the whole thing, that wood really warmed up.
