Wood Hyperframe grips

[kruger]

Ok, I have been asked if I could do Hyperframe grips in wood. I can, its just that I dont know if there is very much interest in these or not. I am just looking to get a little feedback on this subject and see if there is. Right now I am not set up to do them, dont have a set of panels to go by, and it has been a coupla years since I have had a hyperframe. Please post up if you are interested. Thanks.

I'd love something that could be sanded and oiled to a nice dark color. I have a set of grips I could send you to use as a template as well.

I'll tell you guys what would help alot. If I could get a pic of the Hyperframe without the grips on. I need the pic from the back of the frame. What I am looking for is anything that sticks out past the grip frame and would interfere with the grip panels being flat against the frame. That would tell me a whole lot. I dont currently have a hyperframe and I would not be able to test fit the panels and make sure that they work. Right now I test fit every pair that I make, just to make sure that they do fit correctly. And, Hyperframes are a bit pricey for me to buy right now :rolleyes:

I can get a pic tomarrow, but I can tell you now the grips will have to be a minimum 1/4in thick and atleast an 1/8in will have to be milled out of the bottom to clear the battery and lcd screen.

Interested but dependant on price.

[kruger]

The price will be dependant on how hard they are to make. If there is a lot of recessing on the inside of the grip panel, then I dont know if I can do it or not. I dont have a reliable way of taking a lot of wood off of the inside of the grip, and it not look like it was chewed by a badger. If it is small areas, then I can deal with that. And, as was posted, I do remember that the battery did stick into the panel some. I will have to think on it a bit...........

It also would have to be milled out for the noid. It sticks out a little.

i might have a spare hyperframe with the noid sitting in it, just havent gotten myself motivated to complete it with some soldering a trigger and a microswitch. Tell me where to send it and I'll let you borrow mine for a while.

That is very generous of you Mobsterboy, and I may take you up on it. However, chettacheese said that he would post a pic of the frame with the grips off of it. If there is a lot of area that needs to be recessed in the grip panel to accomidate them to the frame, then, I may not be able to do it just yet. I will keep you in mind tho. And, I would compensate you for your generosity if I did take you up on your offer:D
