These are available in BROWN or BLACK
 I use glass bedding extensively in pattern making. I  recommend using a good glass bedding on a new stock job.
In the past, bedding has gotten a bad rap when used to fill in a sloppy inletting job, with good reason - it looks pretty cheesy.
 When correctly applied, there is no better way to seal the interior of a stock and give 100% wood to metal contact.
It can also be used under the buttplate. 
There are a number of other uses for bedding, it is one of those tools that a smith would not be without.
 I offer ProBed to my customers because it works well for me. It is fairly forgiving if the mix ratio is not exactly 50-50. When it sets up, it seems to be less brittle or "plastic" than some other compounds,  and I have experienced less chipping when cleaning off the excess with a file.
The kit includes a good set of instructions and product information (worth reading, even if you have bedding experience)

Filler Clay- ignore this and discover how strong bedding really is.

Fumed Silica
-can't say I've used this, but some of you may find it useful, more on that in the instructions.

Release Agent and brush
- paste wax, but effective if used properly.

Stir sticks
- Use a clean stick for each half of the bedding compound- trust me on that...
 Everything you need is here, enough to bed at least 4 stock sets. Goes even farther with experience.
