Does anybody here do their own checkering?I was thinking I might like to give it a try.Here is the plan .While looking for some new grips for my Kimber Custom II I saw a site where this guy who makes his own grips also shows the basics for making them .It doesn't look extremly difficult.The smooth probally would pretty simple,But if I could do them I would like to try some with checkering.One thing that kinda discourages me was some comments made like "For whom the gods do not destroy ,they try to get them to checker or re-checker".....LOL.AnywayI think I am going to give it a try.Thing is I really don't want to invest a lot of money in tools that will probally drive me batty.[

]Anybody got a set of hand checkering tools they want to sell?I know this is not the right place to ask but I am going to post a want add in the classifieds also.Anybody have any insight into the fine art of checkering? BTW I found some sites that haveexotic wood scales pretty reasonable so the wood would not be that expensive...........Thanks Alton
