The first step is to measure the outside diameter of the blank. This can be done with a tape measure or a rather inexpensive micrometer. I prefer the micrometer, as it is easier to use and calibrate to the preferred inside diameter of the grip-to-be. It is important to remember that for all foam material, the inside diameter will expand by up to one third. The objective therefore is to make the inside diameter of the grip slightly smaller than the outside diameter of the rod blank. This is where the micrometer makes life easier, since they all have inside and outside measurement capability and the ouside diameter of the blank can be instantly compared to the inside diameter of the grip. |
