Muskrat Man might not like the dust from MOP, you can check his website to make sure, I believe Elvis does pearl also, I know someone here said the dust bothered them, just can't remember who.

Kaleb doesn't do MOP as he is allergic to the dust.
I don’t do MOP or G-10 because both are very nasty to work with.
MOP is very toxic (I am told), and G-10 is basically micarta made with fiberglass.
I don’t have a ventilation system good enough to handle either of those.
I believe Elvis does do MOP if he is not too busy.
I have messed with it enough to know it is a royal pain. It is so brittle that a guy can break 2 or 3 pieces before he gets one right. Nasty stuff to work with IMO.

Re: fight'n rooster handle repair
You hit the nail on the head Dale. Toxic, foul smelling and as brittle as Grandma's hip. While I couldn't get to it before late April, I'd want two pieces to have a back-up for the "just-in-case" thing, ya know? Other than that, I'm open to it.
