Thank you QKShooter. I greatly appreciate that.
Finding the wood is half of the fun, the other half is working with it and seeing it when it's done. It's a great hobby!

Todays set is another EMP set, but done in Amboyna Burl. I like this wood on ANY pistol, but it looks exepcially good to me on the two tones.
I hope everyone still has all their fingers and toes and enjoyed the 4th of July!

Yet another EMP set, this in exhibition grade curly maple.
Tomorrow I start back with the government and bob grips as they are finished drying and ready for pics. I have a wood to show tomorrow that I bet most of you have not seen, at least not in the way I cut it.So, tune in tomorrow to check it out.
Here's todays pics.

Okay, here we go.....
I found a block of Macassar Ebony which is normally beautiful on it's own. I noticed through all the thoroughseal that was coating it (about 1/8" thick) some indications of some wild patterning underneath. I snagged it, took it home and melted off the thoroughseal and went to the shop for a little investigative cutting. What you see in the pics is what waited underneath. The blanks that I cut from this block have been drying for almost a year with me anxiously waiting for them to be ready to use. Well worth the wait! Just look at this stuff! Wow!
I hope you enjoy the pics as much as I do,

WOW!!!
Those are awesome.
I have seen a lot of nice grips, but nothing to compare with those.
Have you ever made grips for a C&S Adventurer?
Bleeding-heart reporter: “Do you feel that violence begets violence?”
Jeff Cooper: “It is my earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure - and in some cases I have - that any man who offers violence to his fellow citizen begets a whole lot more than he can enjoy."
I'm glad you like them!
I have not made grips for that weapon. Doesn't mean it can't be done though.......
Thanks,

My Lord! Those are thee most beautiful grips I've ever seen, and not for a compact frame.![]()
Get the U.N. out of the U.S.

I either need to make smaller grips, or you need to get a bigger gun.
I do have two sets of officers almost done in the shop. One is solid camel bone that looks alot like the mastadon, and the other is Buckeye Burl.
I'm glad you like these though. Thanks for telling me.

I never saw any Macassar Ebony as nice as that before. That bookmatched set is really breathtaking.
