Just got back from the awesome Conclave – a big “high-five†to all the many people who put on an outstanding Conclave.
Cutting to the meat in this post – First, it was with great pleasure to meet the creator of VisualWrap, Mr. David Boyle in person (and a big savings on the telephone bill) – the software has exceeded it’s abilities in the beta version. I would say it is not hard to use if you know how to get around most any windows program. If you currently make butt wraps, you can save tons of time trying out new designs in a matter of minutes.
Read more about the software at it’s web site www.visualwrap.com (the site in not complete as David could not finish it before leaving for the USA, but he assured us it will be his first project when he returns). The ability to exchange wrap patterns on the web & discuss wrapping in general will lead this web site to become the center of butt wrapping information.
This software is a modern version on Jim Lee’s software. Visualwrap takes full advantage of the Windows environment. David has spent 4 years developing it and the thoughtful layout, help files and wizards show the care of his development. The software has too many features to mention, just when you thought of something it lacked, David would show us the feature. The software’s ability to calculate the off-set tapered center axis points alone make a huge time saver to laying out your wraps.
We know have the software in stock and it can be ordered from our web site by following the link below or by calling us:

PS - For you Alps printer users – you should have seen the light bulbs go on simultaneously above the heads of John Britt, John Knight & myself when David showed the software’s ability to print out the finished butt wrap patterns tapered to the exact scale of your rod! I can see designing some really complicated butt wrap in VisualWrap, printing it out on the Apls printer in metallic and CYMK colors and just sticking it on the blank like a decal.
