More On Birchbark


If youve been following my blog you will have seen where and how I got this birchbark for making some very unique grips. This box contains approx 2000 pcs of premium bark.

I spent the better part of the preparing these for glueing. I figured I had better get at it.

Center hole drilled out with a brad point and clamped flat between some thick washers I machined. The quick grip clamp is a handy tool for keeping the squares flat. Each side is sanded flat prior to installing on the threaded rod. There is approximaetly 50 pcs which will do for a 7" grip once I add some wood and corian.

Watch this space for the finished product!!
