I'm working on some for a PA-63 since I'm left handed and don't like the right handed thumbshelf that comes with the standard plastic grips.

Using coracao de negro.

So far I've only got the grips rough-outlined on the scroll saw. I need a router table to cut the backside inlays next and don't have one in the garage yet. Scanning craigslist every now and then for a good deal on a used one.

I may do some 1911 ones or CZ-75 ones next, but I need all the tools to finish one complete set first. I figure after the router table I'll need a spindle sander and possibly a belt sander if my little palm sander isn't up to the task.

I've used the old grips as templates so far. traced their outline right onto the target material. I'll use them to set my router's depth and cut path, too, for the backside inlays.
