    Too much talking makes my ears bleed. I wanna go blind before I go deaf, so I play with tiny threads and intertwine them and 4 hours later - up pops a YFT chasingaschool of HErring and Sardines.Presto!! lol.

    Are the pics in my first post not popping up again? There are a couple of Fish Wraps in there. Gonna have to throw stuff up the old fashioned way by uploading.

    Any requests for colors, or particular wraps? Fish, stars, abstract? Give me an idea what you want, and I'll see what I've got

    Hopefully someone else has some pics to put up too.

    They did today- before only one of them would pop up for me. Nice work! Would you mind explaining how you do the eva work? I've never done much besides epoxy on the standard grips- I'd love to learn how to do more.

    Teh EVA is simple - find an image, cut out all the pieces, glue them to foam sheets, trace them out, glue them back together, then dig out teh grip to fit the inlay in it. Weldwood COntact cement is the glue to use. THEre isn't much more to it than that.

    This one below took me 50 hours

    Not as fancy as Billy's, but I'm proud of it! 33# deadlift and it's still in one piece! This is a kick ass rod because that 33# lift kicked MY ass! I gotta get back into shape

    That EVA inlay just blows me away Billy!! One of these days I may try it!
