Jorge, great work on the grip. I really like the look of the grips, it also reminds me of my summer camp projects when I was younger. Great job all the way around. Mark

Thanks Mark B, Dave, Mark F and Fred. The difficult is to cut the tapes of the leather with 1.5 mm. by hand and the finish of the wrap. Hours of work.
