Yeah, a bit "blocky" right now. Seriously though, I love watching these threads
where a putter takes shape before your eyes.....

Day 2...Byron Quote"Cut the block off and set it up in the Bridgeport mill ready to hog down tomorrow".

Steve, is that the German Stainless? Looks like the bars I saw in Byrons shop. What's he making a GSS mallet? secret.gif
drewspin
I think that is 1018 carbon steel, not stainless

The german stainless steel is for putters being sold in Japan

If you look on a few earlier posts you can see the back. Shaping will be next.
prudy1006
oh...wow - looks like it could be a "my day" - can't wait to see the finished product.

I'm absolutely loving the mill marks on this putter. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the process/progress.

Z-Man
Grinding and shaping . I asked what the finished weight was going to be and Byron said 350 grams. It still weighs around 370 right now
Wookieedog
Wow, this is really cool to see this transformation and to see how it looks before the finishing.

I don't know how I didn't see this sooner, looks great. Can't wait to see the end result.
ramylson
Very interesting.. thanks for keeping up posted on that putter transforms into a true gamer.
bgolfing
I like the raw look of the last pics. I could putt with that as long as face was smooth enough.
summerland
Any updates on the milling process? Don't leave us hanging!
Z-Man
New pictures.. this putter is spectacular
Z-Man
More pictures.. this after the sole has been red wheeled
drewspin

braithwaite

ronn
That is nice!
manship1856
Did I miss what model Byron that is? If I didn't, what model Byron is that?
hull17rw
That is truly a Handmade Masterpiece. Thanks for posting updates Steve I have enjoyed it.
Z-Man
Not 100 percent sure. I will ask Byron for the name.
summerland
That looks absolutely incredible! I'm almost wishing it was ordered as stainless so it could stay polished like that. That looks awesome! Well done Byron!
Hungsolo
That is very very nice. I love the etched milling on the back....

What might the cost on something like this run...ballpark
MONKLJ
Now thats a new concept on custom- man_in_love.gif

It's here and finished! Absolutely incredible, I think this is possibly the nicest hand made i have ever seen come from Byron. Truly masterful!
TM golf guy 182
Outstanding flat stick. Truly a work of art.
Z-Man

Me too. That is one awesome putter. coolpics.gif
Pure745
WOW.. that is an awesome putter! Before this post i've been skeptical for this whole "handmade" concept.. but this has changed my mind 360! How much does it weigh and how does it feel?? I like Scotty's because i know they feel great.. now im curious.. any feedback on these?
Big Ben
That is the definition of "handmade"; nothing about that putter is stock; zippo. Don't bother to ask about the price unless you really want one cuz it's gonna hurt.
