Well I got a chance to put some time into grips again, these being 1911 grips. I'm pretty happy with these, tho I made one blaring mistake... can you spot it...
I put a mag release dent on both sides, dumb. I also drilled the holes after shaping, which made them look ratty.
Thanks again to Colossus for the standard set of grips to base these off of. I am going to send these out to him after a few more coats of oil and he can check for fit, so well see how well I did after that. If they look good then I'm going to make another set with some ever more burled walnut.
This shot shows the grain the best
And this one shows them the best overall
