I was wondering who out there makes custom fly reel inserts? I'm looking for a purple heart insert for a batson A7 skeleton. Any info would be much appreciated.
Thank you, Jacob Burlison Re: Purple Heart reel seat insert for batson A7 skeleton

If it's only one or two I could knock it out. if it's more then I'm sure someone will jump in here. Re: Purple Heart reel seat insert for batson A7 skeleton

I'm only looking for one :) I'm just glad my wife finally decided what she wanted for a reel seat. We've been surfing the net for almost two weeks trying to find something she likes. Re: Purple Heart reel seat insert for batson A7 skeleton

Nice choice for the seat.
My wife's sister's wood floors in her home are purple heart...wall to wall... Re: Purple Heart reel seat insert for batson A7 skeleton

FYI: jacob, I picked up some purple hart at The Hardwood Store in Gibsonville, NC last week (In case you need a wood resource).
It's a nice wood that stands out because it's not overused. I built an eliptical and contrasted the purple hart with ebony & rosewood inlay. Re: Purple Heart reel seat insert for batson A7 skeleton

I turn a lot of purple heart but mostly for pens with a bloodwood center band that I give away to disabled Veterans that have earned a Purple Heart.
Don't be surprised if the purple hue will fade over time to a rich brown. i have lots of PH blanks that are brown and to get them purple again I set in a window sill after turning and in a few days it is purple again. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
