Pat, the "Skin Shop" is your booth? I was wondering what that was. I'll come by to say hello sometime on FRiday, I always look foward to seeing the innovative ideas you come up with.

The "skin shop" was the orginal people that helped me find the snake skins that were best suited for application to custom rods. This is their first time to be at a venue that provides rod builders with an opportunity to see skins that are best for their use. Look forward to see you there.

Really nice, Pat. But we can improve on that screw and washer on the rear of the foot. Make sure we talk next weekend, I'll have something for you.

Now Tom has me racking my brain how to do away with the screw.I know his idea will make me say "DUH" when it is revealed. Nice idea and cool design.

Very nice work Pat.
I have a friend trying a rod out that I set up like this but with a cork handle. I used a Fuji Plate Type Reel Seats cut in half and used the adjustable half for the back foot of the reel.
