After making my own 1911 grips I got looking around and found this on Thingiverse.
Credit goes to benwc81 for the CAD model.
Since I had the printer already warmed up i thought what the hell, i'll give this model a try.
looks pretty cool with the recessed text. So now I'll not forget what Caliber and model it is 😁

3D Printed 1911 grips

| CAD drawings brought into the CUBE software to prepare for printing |
I wanted them to REALLY stand out so i printed in Neon Orange. the print started around 5am and they were done before my Friday conf call was finished (9AM). I just took them off the build plate and they fit perfectly.
what do you think, maybe Neon Green next round?
Hot of the printer - took about 2 1/2 hours start to finish
