Do You Work With Wood Like G10?

[mathnerdm]

Hey I was looking into getting into handle scale making with wood instead of G10 like ive done before... Is it basically the same process? Do I just use a dremel for all the sanding on it, maybe a belt sander for big stuff. And how would i finish it to get it to that nice almost glossy wood look. I know for G10 I usually just wet sand to 2000 and oil it but would i just dry sand it with wet or dry or what? Thanks and have a nice day!
