So,

I have been pondering this for quite a while, Making my own handles I have been considering making custom molded handles out of liquid rubber, which will be somewhat of a long process.

Making molds, then the actual handles.

I am wondering if anyone out there knows of a company I can outsource a design to, enabling me to focus on my grinding and other things so it will be less work for me.
 
I did something similar a while back. I first made my design out of micarta. Took it to a cnc shop, they made me a metal set. That set I gave to a friend who manufacturers boats. He made my molds. I spray the mold with release agent, pour, and wait for it to dry. Pop them out.

Hope this helps.
 
George, so.........when you say, "I spray the mold with release agent, pour, and wait for it to dry. Pop them out."
What are you pouring into the mold?

I like some Micarta but by pouring you can't really accomplish that effect! So are they solid color???

You got any pics of that finished product?? This sounds interesting!
