Bubble gum pink g10 rod?

[dfarm]

I'd like to have some for an upcoming build but neither Pop's nor MMS nor AKS have any.

Has anyone seen it available anywhere?

Atlas supplies, Premium Knife Supply, and Maker Material supply have it. Just google "Pink G10 Rod" and a few sources come up. Etsy, Ebay also have it, usually from one of the aforementioned sellers.

careful how you google that...

LOL, yeah...on a work computer, too! Maybe turn Safe Search on before googling it! But it did work and bring me to pink G10 rods/tube search results.

"Pink" and "bubblegum pink" are different colors

I'm hoping to find the matching pin so it blends with the scales

Ok, you may need to check with the suppliers. It's hard to tell if it will match, so you may need to get scales and pins from the same supplier and make sure they know that they need to match! I've seen places calling the regular pink as bubblegum pink online as well? Not sure if it's just how it's polished/treated after it's finished or if it's an actual different material.

If it needs to match, you may need to get extra scales and use a lathe to turn a section of the scales down into pins? Or use a hidden pin method?

The pink you posted looks more purple to me. Atlas says this is pink, and it looks like your bubble gum pink.

I will say Atlas is good people. They'll make sure the material matches if you tell them it needs too. And if you hit a certain dollar amount, you'll get free shipping. Also, not sure why, but they also have an ebay store that's sometimes easier to find what you're looking for.

Thank you but I'm trying to match the more obnoxious pink. I have both colors of g10 in sheets and I suppose it is a little bit purple if I look at them together.
