Default sparkie's grips
Ok guy's I just finished checkering a few more grips. Please let me know what you think


These are rosewood. couple mistakes on them,but good enough for me to use




These are a Walnut & Cherry laminate:




I just finished these: Black Sassafras,I think they are my favorite so far!




My next project's are gonna be: Leopardwood , Purpleheart,& Figured Eucalyptus!

You might suprise your self! It take's patience,and determination,oh, and a lot of practice LOL! In all honesty,If I can do it I'd say you or anyone else here could. I've seen the collective talent here and it's impressive what you guys can do. you all inspired me to try,other wise I doubt I would have even tried
