In the middle of making the Mjolnirman, I cut some wooden scales on the laser for fun to mock up the eventual G10 scales. Then it dawned on me, why not make a G10 scaled Charge? I'll get another piece

Ever wonder what a charge would look like in wood? Wonder no longer.











I'll see what cutting G10 will be like on the laser, but I hope well or both this SuperCharged or the Mjolnirman will be a lot more work than expect.

Why stop now?

The Wave or the Charge?

The Wave either had T10 Security Torx bits (you'll need two) or the Charge has those stupid knurled screws that I slowly torqued off with the cap crimper on the Charge ALX and another pair of pliers holding the screw in.

Canada post says the G10 will be in on Wednesday and I'll laser cut Thursday.

Cool idea... needs the edges rounding off to be ergonomically pleasing, but I bet the G10 will be excellent.

So is this still just a test, or are you going to finish these scales and leave it wood-clad? :)

I am torn. The wood, once finished would be amazing. I'll see how I feel after I get the g10 cut.

This only means one thing, I have to search for another damaged Charge to fit the wood scales on.
