Thank you, Sir!
I have just finished up a few more sets, and thrown out some hooks on eBay. The problem with eBay is that it's either long sticks where the shipping absolutely kills it, or nice, short project pieces 12" or 24" long when my blanks need to be 6 3/4". I found the wood I'm using when I was in Nashville last week, so I might just wait until I go next time. This is about 3/4" thick, so I have to resaw and plane it to roughly 3/8" before I can use it.
So for those of you thinking that the grips are expensive, this is just one of the problems you have to deal with when you want to make authentic reproductions.
BTW: For those who are wondering how I can resaw a 3/4" board into two 3/8" pieces: I don't. Planed 3/4" (ie not dimension sanded) is a bit thicker than 0.75", so I can get the 0.32" I need for the Radom grips if I'm really careful when I saw it. If it ends up too thin, I plane it to 1/4" so I can use it for 1911 grips. Just gotta keep that CNC running.
