Dream Weaver Loom Question

Can the Dream Weaver Loom be used on a blank (fly, if that matters) that has it's handle installed? I know the guides can't be on the blank. I tried to get ahold of one of the distributors, but this being Friday evening I couldn't get an answer.
Thanks

The opening for the part that would go over the handle has an opening of about 40 mm. I use it over Hypalon handles and reel seats as large as Aftco ARS 3ms I think you will be fine.

ps What Bob says is true. But to avoid that what I did is take thing guage PVC, slit it, wrap it in the area to be mounted and then tighten it up. Like a protective barrier.

Joe: Be sure and not tighten it too tightly or it will dent the handle. It worked for me on a fly rod. Bob
