Does anyone what happen to The Rod Shop? I purchased one of his EcoWrapper from him at the 2008 High Point rod building show and I am trying to contact him for some replacement parts. I have tried all his contacts - email, website and phone numbers. Let me know if anyone can help me get in contact with him.
Thanks,

Not sure. Haven't heard from him in a few years now. Perhaps someone here has kept in touch with him. Neat wrapper.

What sort of parts do you need.
Most wrapper parts are pretty simple to either make or obtain.

Be safe

I know. I need some of the open cell rubber. This is something I can purchase from one of my company vendors, but I my though was he may have them precut and all I will have to do is put it on the wrapper. He gave me some suggestions and help when I first started using the EcoWrapper. I just like to support the guys that help me out.

If you are talking about the Rod Shop in California, He retired a few years back.

The Eco Wrapper is/was made by Clyde Alho, The Rod Shop, which I seem to recall was in the upper midwest.

Did more research and found out Hook and Hackle sell the Eco Wrapper. They gave me another e-mail address to contact Clyde. I did get hold of him today. Thanks all for our help.
