I don't have time to learn how to turn cork, but I'd like to use some laguna cork on a rod I'm building shortly. Not sure on the length yet, but does anyone know of a source of pre-made laguna cork grips for a fly rod - Reverse Half Wells please - thanks in advance folks

Someone would have to build one for you, another option for that look would be a Pac Bay bamboo cork grip which has a texture. Not exactly the same, but pretty close. Some nice pics of bamboo cork in use are on the Worried Shrimp site.
