Day 1 Purple heart...

[geezer]

Just finished up a new set of grips for one of my 1911s...Made out of Purple Heart wood, I am told they will "purple" up over the next few days, and to seal them with UV resistant laquer when they look purple enough to me...The bottom right corner is reflection, it's not rounded off...

Be sure to post 'after purple' pictures. That is going to look great.

Will it be pimp purple?





Kidding of course. I believe I have seen this type of wood before and it looks very good. Like cherry with purple hint to it.
