[#0000FF]You are always welcome.
What kind of rods will you be building? Spinning, fly, baitcast...or ??? Do you already have the other components...like guides, handle, etc.? If not, the first visit might be deciding what you need and getting in an order for the necessaries. I keep a pretty good supply of guides, thread and some handle materials. But depending on what kind of handle and guides you want it may be necessary to go shopping online.
I also have the adhesives and the clear coat finish for the completed rods...and the turning motor to rotate them while the epoxy coat is drying.
Making rods is like many other things in life. A bit confusing and frustrating the first time or two. But once you have gone through the whole process it is fairly simple. After that you can spend a lifetime learning little refinements and developing your own unique touches that make your rods special.
