should've picked a better Eagle to to for the Inlay, I could have matched the wrap 100% perfectly. Oh well, I know for next time.

Don't waste time, lol. I cut the grip inlay out in February, glued it together in May or something, did the wrap last night. I actually forced myself OUT of teh Noreast Chat Room to go get this done. That place is bad news, I waste 2+ hours in there every night for 2 weeks, lol.


What I have done so far on this wrap took me a little less than 2 hours. The blank it is on is a Calstar 800L, so it's a pretty big wrap

Great to see that the inlay I saw all glued together in an envelope (in June)has finally made its way to a grip. The photo doesn't do the wrapped eagle any justice though!! Came out great.

You think I have a lot of spare time? lol. I do the inlay while I'm at work as a omputer programmer. I cut it up there, then glue it together when I'm home sitting in front of the TV wasting my life. I'll tried to do all my inlay glueing at one shot, during college basketball season - it was like having the game on radio, but when something good happened I could look and and watch. This Eagle wrap, took me a little less than 2 hours. I still have to fill in teh background though, and it's on a fairly large ID blank.
