Grips

John, the Oregon maple grips are all beautiful; can't say I really like the red/black burl, but that's just me.

Nice work.

wow those are awesome. I need to learn some woodworking skills.

Beautiful! I'd like to find some grips like those for my N frame Smiths.

Nice work :wink:

John,

Those are absolutely beautiful!!

Forgive my ignorance, but are you a do-it-your-selfer, or do you make & sell them as well.

John,just where is Taylor Ridge????

It looks like John was only active here from late April to mid May. His email is in his profile though.

Fancy!

Those grips looks great. Awesome craftmanship! I love the look of burl. What kind of finishing products do you use?

My only concern with any kind of burl is how stable it is. As an occasional wood worker I've experienced instability (chip out & brittleness) with many types of burl woods, especially those that are handled frequently without a durable finish. Most problems I have noticed have occurred with exotic burls though.

Do you do any work with dense birds eye maple or curly cherry?
