Handle remodelling - SHIMANO Cumara

A total reconstruction of the handle from a split grip to a single hand grip handle.




The rod at its' original state.



Completely stripped out and 6" of the butt section was cut.



Retaining the butt cap for this rod.



3" of the blank was wrapped with metallic thread for the skeleton reel seat. I am using PacBay skeleton reel seat to retaining the original reel seat design of this rod.




Test fitting the reel seat.



New EVA rear grip.



Existing butt cap reinstall.



The new single hand grip completed.
