Looking for 1911 and Sig P238 gun grip files

Post by awalters »

I'm looking to purchase files to make grips for the 1911 full size pistol and Sig P238. Does anyone know of a source where the files can be purchased. I have searched the previous threads and the ones found were not suitable for my needs.

I've been think about making some grips for a 1911. I was going to take them off then scan them in the copy/printer and then import them as a bitmap.
Not sure if it will work but worth a try.

I have all the profiles of the grips I need, I just don't have the 3D files...yet.

Thanks for the posts. I'm still learning to use Aspire. Seeing a finished model really helps.

Why doesn't anyone offer pre-made Aspire files for sale?..like they offer Vector Art 3D files. I think you guys that are good at drawing in Aspire could start a side business just selling the files.

With gun grips being somewhat of a standard part, I'm suprised nobody sells the files.

No credit for design and manufacture goes to me - someone else posted those a while back on this forum

I made a few sets a while back, various designs.

Attached is a file that has the locations for the counterbores, a layout for checkering, etc.

It also has the lower chamfer cut, which is easier to do than trying to model it.
