No Steve, this isn't your grip!!

I love customers that let me experiment on their rods!!

I hope I didn't jump the gun by posting this. This thing may end up in my 'Grips I'm not too proud of' drawer before it's all over!

Sweet. I don't have a band saw, but I did just get a scroll saw given to me. Now if I can just get it to work haha.

No Steve, this isn't your grip!!

Haha...I am going to be honest, when I saw this topic, I swelled up with anticipation!

Isn't that a scroll saw? The one I had given to me runs like it works, but when you go to cut something it won't cut???? Brand new blade too. I'll have to tinker with it a little.

Nope, it's a band saw.

Scott, you are killing me! What on earth could you be doing for this design?

I'm watching with interest.

Diagonal stripes alternating in quadrants?

Yes and no. I will keep that in mind for a future design though.

Me too!

8.5 on creativity......2 on execution. Got a few more pieces to glue together yet. Not real happy with how its coming together. We shall see once they hit the lathe!!

Was kinda happy with these 2 grips at lunch.

Then I tried to glue the last 4 pieces in the one on the left. It blew apart when I clamped it! Grrrr. Guess I'm trying to rush it and the last joint wasn't fully cured.

I know, I know!

And I'm still fighting with the one that isn't Steve's. Its now in 2 pieces instead of 6, but I'm having a hard time getting those 2 pieces clamped together and aligned. I've made 4 attempts and its being a bear.

I'm sure it can't be any harder that getting a particular blank from St Croix.

How can I be Scott's close friend, Pro Staff manager, and confidential sounding board for grip ideas if his grip ideas don't remain confidential?????

Finally got the thing together. No Steve, this isn't yours.

Still not sure it's gonna come out the way I want. It might end up on the scrap pile!
