Making a set of wood grips!
🕑 Added 2023-01-31 01:50:12 +0000 UTCYup, I do a little woodworking on occasion, too!
Client sent in a semi-rare Carter Machine stock-class pump, and due to the unusual shape of the grip frame, I convinced him he needed a set of custom grip panels to match. :)
Took a lot of extra time on this video- still not perfect, but we're getting there.

Very neat video and a lovely result..., that's a neat-looking marker, too!
What are the yellow and orange sanding belts? Mfr, grit?
It always fascinates me to watch someone else's hands work.
Love watching a craftsman at work. tyvm for the vid.

Actually, I managed to cut that lightly on the paper-cutter while making the last couple of cards. :)

Very cool. Looks like you caught your thumb towards the end, there.

Ooh! That looks like fun.
Oh wow, I've been away for a while. I forgot about Carters.
Um. . . copyright date might need updated? It's a little jarring after all the machine-tool rebuild threads, to have you doing woodwork. . . with a bouncy string section for accompaniment. (yeah, I know, copyright, yadda) But the grips turned out much better than the last set I tried to make. Must be all them fancy tools.
