Riser duplication how do you do it.
« on: July 19, 2015, 02:57:00 PM »
I currently use a sander and rasp but it takes atoll on the hands.  So how do you all do it mainly for the grips.

I've seen some use hand held spindle sanders. Been thinking of adding one to the kit.

I used this on the last bow , bocote riser, didn't plug up much and I bet if I ran it in reverse on some maple it would clean right out.

Its a tire repair tool for grinding before the patch. Think it was less than 5 bucks when I bought it several years back,wish I'd tried it sooner.

I put a carriage bolt in it with a washer and nut to hold it.

Run it slow or fast, no prob and it really shapes stuff. I imagine it would shape fingers too, so be careful if you try it!   :D  

   
Stay sharp, Kenny.

That's  pretty  neat right there Kenny it sure would save on sand paper. Thanks for the tip.
