I Just purchased a Grizzly lathe (thanks to some fine direction from members of this forum) and am in the process of picking out components to build my first handle for a fly/spin fishing rod. I would like to be able to remove the butt cap from the reel seat & install a 2-3 inch fighting butt/ rear grip to the rod for spin fishing. Would this work?? I am looking at buying the American Tackle fighting butt extension (AFBE) along with the insert. Will I be able to form cork to my specs, then install it on this item from American Tackle. I am assuming I can do this, as I see Mud Hole sells fighting butts which look to be built on this type of insert, but would like to build one to match the fore grip.Thanks, Jim Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
