I use a waxed linen thread I got from Tandy for stiching up leather and beavertails.

Looks good! Thanks. I'll look at the local HOBBY LOBBY and see if I can find anything similar. Thanks guys.

I think using serving material is pretty common also. That is what I used on mine. 3 years later, it is holding up just fine.

Ranger3, the color of your grip in very nice. It looks more natural than the black ones. Good job!
