Customizing Cork Handles

[Morneau132]

I'm looking for someone to point me in the right direction of where I can have 7 cork rod handles customized. I'm looking to have them inscribed or burned/stamped with initials to make them unique to give as gifts to my groomsmen in my wedding party. I have already purchased the rods, just need the handles worked on by june 26th. Thanks for the help guys....If you would prefer to email me my address is below.

Tight Lines,

Kyle

Rockler Woodworking has made to order branding irons you could do yourself.

You're going to either want to find an artist that is into woodburning or find someone or a company with a laser etching machine. Sorry I can't point you in any specific direction, but it certainly sounds like a cool gift. Good luck and congrats.

My Daughter has done wood burning for me. Find someone who has some artistic talents.

First of all, congratulations on your upcoming wedding! I see you're in Lonsdale, if you want to bring the rods up to Prior Lake I bet I can help you out.

Contact Chad at [email protected].

Thanks for the replies and emails guys/gals.... Unfrozen I will be contacting you shortly... Much appreciated

Try Bill and Al at Midwest Rod And Reel. If they cant do it they will know someone who can.

Sounds like a great idea!

Now !! WE DO expect pictures of some of the finished rods!!!!!

Contact Lonnie at Thorne Bros. He can Customize the rod blank with what ever you want on the rod blank. Just another option. (I'm sure something on cork would not be a problem)

There are not many Custom Rod places left. We need to support them all, so we can enjoy the experience of rod building. It is a great hobby to get into, especially with your children/ or friends

Thanks for all of the advice guys/gals.... I will post pics of the completed rods... They should be done in 3 weeks! I can't wait to see them, they're gonna be great gifts to give!

It's just a few posts up ... it starts with "Here you go..."

I can't see images when viewing from work, only at home. Perhaps you're having a similar issue? If not, something else is blocking your access to the images. Maybe check the FAQS.
