You do some beautiful work! Do you ever do tiger stripes? I'm thinking along the lines of the way some guys "burn" (or whatever the correct term is) the stocks on their M14's.

well I wish I could but I'm afraid I can't, I made them back when I first started making grips and I didn't take pictures of everything I made.

Too bad. I've never considered custom grips until now and really think that style would be sharp! If you come across the proper wood in the future, please keep me in mind, thanks much.
