Rich does great work on the fit and finish on his grips and seats and also provides a unique system to apply weight for balance if it is needed.

Great work on them all Rich. Having handled a couple of the grips I can say they are light as a feather and fit the hand well. Any time you need checkers let me know and I'll be happy to send some out. Mark.

Thanks, Mike, Doc, and Mark for your compliments. Mark your inlays are always super nice and look great. They add a lot to the handles and are fun to turn. Mark thank you for your offer with your checkers, maybe we could work out a trade of some kind. Have a great day, Rich.

Great looking grips and functional ergonomics in the "total package". imo, what it's all about. I really like how you used Stan's Juniper. Stan was kind enough to send me some pieces. The resulting seats/grips get the most compliments of anything I've turned. This forum's collaboration sets it apart.

Real nice! I've had to go to 2 suppliers: one for the HPS nuts and IPSM bodies, and another for the IPS triggers. Do you by any chance know of one source for all of these components? If they had 'em at woodcraft or rockler, now that would be even better. Thanks.

Hi Steve, thank you for your compliment. I think Stan,s Juniper is great also, teamed up with Mark Blabaum,s inlays they go together like bread and butter. The design and wood used in Mark,s inlays compliment the Juniper and they look very nice together.
Hi Steven, thank you for your compliment also. I think you can get all three components from Custom Tackle or Bingham Enterprises. I would call Bob at Custom Tackle or Karen at Bingham Enterprises. I think they both can get all three components, also you might ask Robert at Fishsticks4u, I think he said he said he could order all three components. Custom Tackle and Bingham both show all three components on their web sites. Have a great day, Rich.
