had guy that was going to make me some one piece grips for my black powder conversion guns, & maybe a few of my single actions... if I bought the wood, & paid his labor... well he got a different job, & had to back out, since he was too busy... ( which is fine, I harbor him no ill will ) however I've started collecting wood already, & have picked up a few nice pieces... I could probably handle making 2 piece grips, if I had more spare time, but I don't have the equipment to do a good one piece grip...

anyone out there, or could recommend someone ???

Make the one-piece grips just like the 2 piece ones.
Then, glue a block of wood between them. Instant one-piece grips!

thank you sir... that is an option... doesn't help me with the spare time thing, but I could perhaps make a set if I had to...
