Ordered 11/2 and have not gotten mine. Was told on 12/15 that the tip section needed to be built but they had to switch to another build activity so it was going to take more time.

Built a full wells grip using red pine bark rings and finished with CA. I was told recently that CA is not a good finish for a rod grip because of moisture durability. Is this true and if it is, can I top coat with Permagloss?

What brand of epoxy are you using for the wet lay up phase? Since it is impossible to get anything from Riley Rods is The West System with the 207 hardener the best? Should it have uv stabilizers? Finally, when do you cut the reel seat recess in the grip and what tool is used to get accuracy to .01"? Thanks

I would like to build a fly grip from Doug Fir but can't find the bark or 1 1/4" rings. I am from PA so no local source is available. I spoke with a mulch company in Oregon but had no success. Does anyone know where I might get Doug Fir bark.

I have been waiting 5 weeks for a grip that Mike told me was completed. I have had no success in contacting him by phone, email or voicemail for over 3 weeks now.
