An alternate cork turning issue.
I enjoyed the creative ideas for cork turning solutions. I have similar issue for consideration...
I have a beautiful (custom) John Channer Hex Boo' Rod (may he rest in peace). John and I miscommunicated with regard the handle shape. I wanted a half-wells grip, and got a reverse half-wells grip. As I would like not to disassemble a brand new rod, I'm wondering if there is a way to turn the intact rod to remove the lip in order to make a western style handle. I'll only have to remove a total of maybe 1-2 cc of cork, if that.
Alternately, as doing what I'm talking about seems on the surface of it to be ill advised, can any of you suggest high attention to detail rodmakers who would roduce a good product, rod disassembly or not?
Thanks for your ideas...

Shape of things to come, grips too...
Mornin' Betty, want to have some big fun? Glue up some cork rings and then sit out on the patio or related and hand shape the cork grip of your dreams, one that fits your hand perfectly. You will be amazed at how much fun it is and how easy it is....but then you knew that !
Cheers,
