Bow Handle Design
« on: February 06, 2016, 11:11:00 AM »
I have been reading a few of the bow build-alongs and noticed some bowyers putting a knurled effect on the grip of the bow.

I was wondering if there were any instructions on how to create that effect on a handle/grip as I would like to give it a try.  I believe it is done with a dremel tool but would like a little more detail if anyone is willing to share.

Thanks

I would rather fail at something above my means, than to succeed at something  beneath my means

Thanks so much to both of you.  That is exactly what I was looking for.  I never thought about the rifle checkering, which would also be a good way to go.

Sorry, double post and I don't know how to remove one.
