i like the handle you came up with. does it feel more comfortable? any more info?
…You’d have to try it,Nothing compares,NOTHING! …It’s like comparing the performance of a 130lbs koa finless board(skill-100)… to a Surftech(stock Clark Hitachi)… to a full blown Gerry Lopez gun(M-16 gripped Hitachi)…Herb
how can i get one, or make one? i’m all about trying new things…
Hey Herb…Me to i’ll be down in HB and San Clemente in a few weeks how can i hunt you down??? http://surfnwsc.com
What will the ATF goons think of a bunch of board builders making a run on M-16 handels. Soon we’ll have CIA agents lurking on Swaylocks to assess the risk we pose. How do we get them Herb? Your description of the difference is so compelling. NO ONE wants to play with a Surftech! -Rob Olliges
…The person that makes these grips is not really friendly to outsiders he doesn’t know.Sure if you have a resale # ,and you inquire to him in the correct manner he will sell you certain parts,but I don’t know of many people,(for that matter anyone),to walk up to his small shop in the ghetto and buy direct from him.If someone here from Swaylocks was to do that, you’d probably get ran out.He services a small elite group,and intends on keeping it that way,he has more than enough work. …Not is all lost!I can buy as many as I want,anytime. …Rob B. you are more than welcome to look me up or we can do a mail order thing. …Rob O. same,same…PRICES? GEEEZ Haven’t gave that much thought,maybe like 30 bucks???I don’t know,Ill have to add it up.I put a little time in them,reseating the hole in the base,and tapping a hole for the pin.A little cosmetic grinding,and rubberizing the entire grip + a teflon rubber washer for use under the grip.It’s not much work now,but putting it together in the beginning was learning experience.The KNOB2GRIP will just swap out with no modifications needed.I WILL TRY TO KEEP THE PRICE DOWN AS LOW AS I CAN FOR NOW. …And yes Rob O.,why Waltz,when you can ROCK N’ROLL.Herb
…It’s like getting a triggerjob for you favorite pistol or rifle.Herb
Herb, I may also in line for one! Can’t wait to stare down a blake … “…make my day…” cfp
…Teddy,Chris…Yeah,I’ll go get a bunch more,and do them up right! ,Also you can get the stock grip from me and re-work it yourself,I’ll just charge what the grip cost me + shipping… …or if you’re skilled enough you could build your own from either exisiting stuff you may already have or make one fron scratch(like laying up some Baltic birch??? …AT anyrate let me know what you folks want,I’m really,really stoked on the grips,it definiately was a sore spot in the planer’s design,but not anymore ,instead it’s positive++.Herb
