Heat Stippling Polymer (A Tutorial) (Page 5 of 8)
|
Just thought I'd chime in - I used to do a bit of leather working and leather stamps lopped off at the end may work for stippling. The thickness of the stamp handles are probably a bit thick but I'm sure modification wouldn't be too difficult.

Got me a soldering iron with changeable tips yesterday.  So far I think the spade bit is about the right level of texture for me and it also acts like a stop to keep you from going to deep. I do not like the screwdriver bits at all. |

How did you achieve it? |

That looks nice. Looks like you used 2 different tips as well. Wish I had the guts to do it on my M&P but i'll have to do a few more pmags first. |

I'm feeling pretty confident now that I've developed a little bit of technique though. I'm looking forward to tackling some more mags and my MOE grip next... I just know to take a handful of Aleve first this time

Done by a fellow member on here (BigHate) on my M&P. I have come to the conclusion I suck at stippling.

So I realized I have one of those Weller wood burning irons at work, with a bunch of tips I never use. Ground one down and filed some lines into it. Came out better than I expected, but not a good as I had hoped. 
And the tip.

I like that. I've always stippled the inner portion. Don't know why I never thought of doing the ribs. |

Nice way of thinking outside the box. |

Cross post from the Walther forum, here's what I just did to my PPS:

It's hard to photograph, but... Oh well. I'm debating adding a bit to the smooth part on the upper left of the frame where my support-hand thumb rests, but haven't settled on a pattern that would work there, yet. |
 Smith and Wesson M&P VTAC recently done. Turned out great!! AND...  KAC VFG with a new texture that I have worked very hard to accomplish. I think it was worth the effort! |

Nothing is more powerful than a young boys wish. Except an Apache helicopter. An Apache has machine guns & missiles. It is an unbelievably impressive complement of weaponry, an absolute death machine.

I just bought a Glock 20 Gen 4 the other day. I believe I want to do a grip reduction mod and trigger guard undercut. I was going to employ the candle method and from what I've read, it is likely the backstrap will be a bit deformed from the process.
I HATE most of the stippling I've seen. I think most of it looks like garbage no matter how effective it is. That being said I understand I'll probably have to do that to my new glock if I do this. Can anyone tell me how (what tool, tip, etc.) this S&W was done? I like the look of that, reminds me of my P30.

When I'd stipple my Pmags, I could really only do 1 a night as my hand would start hurting and I'd go
