Grips

[FredMnkyDad10]

Anyone done 3d print of these. I am sure some ppl on here would be interested in some. I would like the two hole version in purple for my micromag. Heck i am sure the 3 hole angel version wrap around would get some interest.

I do have some wood filament.......

That would be very cool to see. Can these be done in hard and soft filaments, basically equal to the original wood and rubber grips.

Do you need anything to get them going?

[XEMON]

Do you have a cad file for them?

[grendal50]

With wood filaments you can vary the temps and get color changes from "cooking" the wood fibers in the filament. I haven't seen it done yet, but I made a wooden box for my wife and put a stain on it that looked real nice.

XEMON I myself do not have anything but a pair of the wood grips pictured

[grendal50]

I do not have a cad file either, and my modeling skills for something like this leaves a great deal to be desired...

[XEMON]

The "problem" is that this kind of parts takes A LOT of time to cad and A LOT of test print to get anything decent ...
I'd love to get the file to print a set or 2, but I know I don't have the time to get this off the ground ...

These are 2 hole grips for cocker frames? Or for mag frames? I think I might have something that is already close. I'll see if I can find a pic.

I think OP is looking for the 2 hole standard .45's

I have a phantom 45 wrap around grip. It would be good for the hole placement.

The grooves I made are spaced different (higher) to make the reach to the trigger on the phantom more comfortable. They work but I was never quite satisfied with them. Those finger grooves are hard to get right. This is where I was asking about losing control of fillets in the model.

They were a fight to get printed in tpu. However, you can adjust the perimeters and infill to get the right firmness, which is nice.

Me I am looking for two hole for mag frame. But I am sure there are others that would love for autocockers too, including me since I am working on couple projects.

Is there an easier way to 3d. Can they be scanned to cut down on the test/trail and fire. No experience with 3d just asking is all.

I tried looking on a couple of file sites like thingiverse for 1911 wrap around grips but came up with nothing. But I do think there is a potential for Finding someone who laid groundwork that way.

Why 3d Print when Hogue already makes them for 1911. These will fit most 45 frames in paintball that are not "thin" frames:

Going to pick up a pair of these, think they will go good. we still need a single hole version.

[Grendel]

For the single hole grips keep an eye out for VL, AGD and PMI single hole grips. I know VL for sure made purple ones in a TPU because I have sold a set in the past. VL IMO were the best of the 3 [VL, AGD, PMI] for fit and comfort on CF frames followed closely by ADG.

[Rainmaker]

This was the thing i was thinking of that i worked on awhile back

[Grendel]

Wasn't that for a Nelspot frame (single hole) I seem to remember you working on some Nelspot stuff but then I am getting old and the mind is not what it used to be

[Rainmaker]

You are remembering partially correctly... I did work on some Nelspot grips more recently, but this one above was from several years ago and I'm pretty sure was an automag grip? Either way, i did two separate grip projects (well, unless we're counting all the other ones two... more like 5 grip projects at this point...)

[BrickHaus]

Man, these look nice.

Rainmaker erI am still not able to respond to your private message. Yes I still want them and black is fine. I sent Paintzapper my email info since we are not able to communicate here.

Just stumbled upon this.

I've been working on grips for my Automag Benchmark 45 frame: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5476418
