Grip Restoration

Thanks, Eric. As you may know, one YouTube leads to another. I clicked on some related videos and found this one, interesting in that it related his boiling oil-soaked grips to clean them up. Looks like it worked pretty well without harming the wood. The side plate looks bad--came out weird, IMO. And I don't think I'd allow a media-blasting setup in the same room with a Luger.

Another very interesting "P.08". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nh9J...gaq_6RxEZfoY_g A real work of mechanical art that will amaze. The comments below are filled with requests for plans/prints, but the author never responds. There's a 1911 to be found if you click on the YouTube account for the person who posted this.

And for a completely different projectile, watch this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mIM...gaq_6RxEZfoY_g It is in Spanish, but the visuals tell all.
