nice instructable. do you know what material the commercially made grips are made of? once you make the molds this would be a much cheaper way of peg gripping a Woodie.

My understanding is the pro stuff is made of polycarbonates, polyethylenes, or other polymers. You can find more expensive resins on line by looking up molding plastics or plastic resins. play around with the filler and you can get different colors and surface textures too.
