HP29 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I want to cut a trigger grip into a CCM 1060. Am am I going to have fibreglass fibres sticking out or strips chopping my hand up if I do this? It looks like there’s reinforcements running all up the paddle. Thanks!

stackem30 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 You can take some steps to prevent any splintering: 1. After you cut, break the edges down with some grittier sandpaper, 60-100 2. Next, smooth it out with a finer sandpaper, 220 is good 3. Give it a few cotes of varnish, allowing them to dry in between. Had great success with this. Worth the trouble!

ThatCarGuy Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I cut down the paddle on my True FC Pro A6.0 stick. After cutting down the paddle we used a 60 grit file to smooth the edges down. I believe we used a 120 grit file for smoother edges. While I didn't apply any sort of covering to the True stick I have used epoxy on a cut down Vaughn stick to prevent getting cut. No problems with the True stick though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DL42 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 use it as a pattern and get it duplicated at passsau or northstarsticks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max27 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 youll be fine. i did this on a sherwood 530. make sure to use sandpaper or a sander on the cutout to smooth it out. if you want, tape over it to reasure you wont get splinters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayluv54 Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 cut it, sand it, put some tape over it. Done it plenty of times and even with composite sticks. I like to add a thin piece of foam for comfort purposes because I tend to feel more vibration and somewhat of a recoil effect from shots when I use a trigger grip.
