Product Details
Dream Reamer
by: Batson Enterprises
SKU: OR-001150-0000

Product Overview:

Batson’s Forecast® Dream Reamer is the custom rod builder’s ideal answer to reaming cork grips to fit blanks. This tool is available in either a kit with 4 shafts of different sizes for any size rod and a universal handle, or as an individual shaft with a handle. The threaded tapered fiberglass shafts can be used with the handle or with a portable low RPM drill, using the metal sleeve on the base for chucking. The sandpaper on the shaft cuts through cork like a hot knife through butter, and is durable enough for several pieces of cork. (Not recommended for manufacturing environments.) Replacement 36 grit sandpaper is available in packages of 4 rolls and can be glued to the shaft with Zap Gel or rod bond.

Other Details:
Shaft diameters: light/med - 0.215″ — 0.350″; med/heavy – 0.350″ — 0.500″; kit includes 4 shafts up to 0.650Prime;
Starting at: $21.65

4 out of 5 stars good reamers 00/00/0000
Reviewer: A viewer from Little Rock AR
These reamers are really cool, I have the two smaller ones and they are perfect for fly rod making. These reamers come with a handle but I never use it, I just cuck in the drill and ream away. These will cut through burl grips easily and makes the task alot easier then the hand reamers. Just be cautious when reaming burl the fiberglass will heat up and break if you get to agressive

4 out of 5 stars Works Great! 00/00/0000
Reviewer: Jeremy Green (fredgreen89@hotmail.com) from Prince George, BC CA
As a new rod builder, I had been using round files to ream cork grips. I thought I would give the Dream Reamer a try. It works far better than files - no contest!! Great product!
