Phil,
I was thinking about the additon of anoher rod part - as I was typing the number for the 24 rings which is of course for the 1/2 inch length of 12" as posted above.
Thanks for the heads up.

I just spent the weekend with my grandson doing advanced math and calculus, so I must be a big drained when it comes to simple addition.

Roger

Joaqim, I was talking about the hole diameter, not the diameter of the cork rings. Why no larger hole diameters?

Thats my primary go to cork. I bought a big block years ago to carve duck decoys. I mix it with everything. Its pretty blah just by itself.

if you have a good saw you can cut into blocks and then rings or sections and add different colored rings to it
Also do designs like the way Billy does his eva grips
Nothing dull about that

Yea, thats what I meant by mixing it with everything. I block it on the band saw, turn on lathe and then cut into what ever lengths I need, then mix with EVA strips, cork, burl or whatever.

Ahhh, but the Interval across an 8" butt grip and a 4" foregrip would be 32 rings . . . right ?
