That's more than a little handy. You do professional grade work. Did you ever do work for others? Like bobbing or custom grips, etc?
What did you use to het the roll marks off the slide?
Thank you.
I do grips for people if they sell. All of the grips posted besides the spalted maple and the darker set of black&white are still available.
I have not done any work on other peoples pistols, I will probably be bobbing a buddies pistol and at least drilling the hole for another friend sometime soon. I milled the roll marks off of the slide, I think it was about .006 per side, then bead blasted the slide and used a granite block with sand paper taped to it to polish/grain the sides.
It's pretty easy stuff for me considering my trade and the tools/equipment I have access to. I work on a lot more expensive parts with a lot tighter tolerances everyday... That still doesn't stop the nervousness before I start cutting on a pistol.
