Hello Lee. Nice to see you have your own forum. Have you or anyone else used the Fuji IPS reel seats to make a spinning rod handle? I bought the entire kit - seat, pre-cut handle, and locking forgrip, and I'm having trouble getting the cork to fit perfectly into the seat. I'd like to make my own "pre-cut" handle out of cork rings, but I am not sure how to cut the cork stick once it's glued up. Also, how do you sand the cork down - I have the seat edges corvered w/ masking tape, but I 'm wondering if I should sand it by hand or with power.<br><br>Any tips or advice anyone has with these seats is welcome. Thank you, Billy<br><br>
