Start building your own custom rod grips with the CRB Grip Making Kit. Designed for both beginners and seasoned builders, this all-in-one kit includes everything you need to shape cork and EVA handles with precision.

At the core of the kit are four 18" oil-hardened steel mandrels, each machined with a 60° taper at both ends for use with a live center. The included adjustable, removable collars secure your handle in place while you shape, giving you accuracy and control at the lathe. With four outside diameters—1/4", 5/16", 3/8", and 7/16"—you’ll have the versatility to build a wide range of grip styles.

CRB makes it even easier by including essential supplies: mandrel wax to protect your mandrels, ProPaste epoxy for secure bonds, a sanding screen, and three grades of sandpaper to finish grips to perfection. With this kit, you’ve got everything you need to start shaping grips today.
