Itching to build another rod, I placed an order on Sevier's website about a month ago. So, I'm just starting to wonder, does anyone else use this site? Have you had any issues?

Has your card been charged? Dave has had a bunch of serious health issues and most of the builders I know have come to the conclusion that he is pretty much out of business. That's too bad because Dave was a straight shooter. Tiger eye blanks are beautiful and fished nice, too. Wish I knew where he was getting them.
No, my card hasn't been charged. That's too bad to hear he's out of business, especially if it's because of his health conditions. I was really looking forward to building some rods on those tiger eye blanks...
Those are one of my favorite blanks. Sad to hear because I wanted to purchase a few.
I have found a few tiger eye blanks on ebay. I liked looking at the Sevier website.
Same manufacturer, I call them "Goldeneye's"Attachment 11640
Schiedners Rod Shop in Mountain Home,Ak show some still in stock.

Since they are basically by the same manufacturer, the only diffference I can perceive is that for instance the 2/3 wt which usually tended to be closer to a 3 wt, where in these blanks they run more true to the weight designations and they are not multiweight designated. If you want a 3wt get the 3wt, if you want a 4wt, get the 4wt. They will handle overlineing, but it is not necessary.
