Looking for butt caps

Hello all,

I am looking to create an one of a kind float rod for myself. I have built several dozen rods for friends and myself and I am ready to create my pride and joy. I have been searching the sponsors sites (and others) and finding components that I will be using. For the first time I am not rushing or settling.
My problem is that I can not find a butt cap to my liking. I have found one that is close, [www.distantwaters.com]

I found this chinese company yuansheng that has what I am looking for but I can not get any response. Here is what they have that I like. The Spinning tail unit, the JSM spinning rod tail unit or the JSM dividing body spinning rod tail unit . At [www.wh-yuansheng.com]

Has anyone seen anything like these? I would like to find a domestic supply/source if possible.

I have to say that Im am very excited to make this rod, partly (read mostly) because of the things that I have learned here and using all the ideas that I have come up with because of something that I read here.

Great site, great people thanks

Adam S. Hoelper

Adam,

I'll e-mail you a picture of the butt caps that Andy Renzetti makes for us. These are similar (but I think nicer) than the one on the link you provided.
