: Wow, interesting choice of materials! I'm hoping to hear from LeeG

: glass tape on hand, along with the thin Dynel material.

I used West Systems high density filler with a smidge of walnut wood flour for the ends. Seems to me sand makes for a very scratchy surface if you didn't coat it a few more times but it'll definately wear into whatever it rubs against.
