Thanks for showing that! The sanding the curve is pure artistry. I dont have the skills to make that curve. Mine would be all out of round and flat spots and high spots and holes off from where they are supposed to be.

Thanks once again for showing the steps. As soon as I get a keeper 1911 I will have to get an order in!

Very impressive work . The unlikely, to me, looking blanks made a very impressive set of grips. dennis
