Steeldrifter 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2013 A grip I have been working on while bouncing back & forth between customer orders today. Did this one with dark mix/brown burl/rubberized/craft foam accents and then it has 7 coats of hand rubbed urethane to give it a mile deep coat of clear. No idea what I'm building this rod for, just a little side project while the rods dryers are full and waiting for stuff to dry.Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bryon Anderson 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2013 Beauty - love the clear finish. Do you think that will get slippery when it gets wet? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steeldrifter 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2013 Nope, I actually did this to one of my own grips on a 7wt last year and it actually gets "grippier" (is that a word? lol) when it gets wet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
