I've added this ot The NERBs site as a tribute to my friend Bernie Cohen who passed in November. He is best known for his EVA grip inlays, but his passion for this craft is what I will remember him most for. I will be adding more articles, photos and whatever else people send to me about Bernie. If you would like to add something please e-mail me at xlrods@yahoo.com.

Please take a minute to vew the page, thank you = [northeastrodbuilders.com] < Bernie's page

I started building rods in the late 70s and Bernie's name always came up in another foorum. I always read all of his comments and suggestions. Great job with that tribute, Billy.

Never met Bernie but have to say I can see where Billy got his influence. His inlay/grip work are works of art!!

That's very cool. Love the old time basketball pictures.

Thanks for putting this up.
