Default UPDATE-PICS

Here are some pics of my DIY grips remake. First the bad. I drilled two holes in the chipped area in an attempt to anchor some wood filler to fill the space. I discovered the filler was not the best way to go in this case. Now I have two holes. Plan B. Fill the holes and round out the area as best I can with a file. What the hell, only 25 bucks, not a big loss if I F-up. Well, I think they turned out pretty good except for the obvious trade mark I now have. I'm happy and it was a fun project.
Thx to the guys who gave me ideas on this project. My skill level(low)moved me in this direction. I considered all the ideas.
Now it's onto relining a couple of wooden presentation boxes. Wish me luck.
