all done finally

ok put the clear on the rod this weekend it looks very good. i am pleased with how it turned out. i learned alot more and cant wait to do the next one. here are some pics.

wow .. ..looks great larry awsome job...let us know how it performs.....

Awesome job looks great

looking good... keep it up..... you can do one for me or my brother...... lol...

now that im set up for it if the colors are simple its not too bad. the butt wraps can get very involved and i want to learn some of the more complex patterns but this one was simple to do just a very large learning curve. i hope to use it next week. im kinda afraid to what if the guides pop off with a fish on or the blank has a flaw in it and snaps? oh well we will see.

Nice job on your first one. Hope you do well with it.

looks great BUT, it would look a lot better next to a fish

you know i still havent used it work has kept me too busy. hopefully next week i can try it out.

WOW

That can't be your first rod....Looks incredible!!!

Dam Larry

Thats awesome ...

Send that sweet rod to me i am not affraid to test it out for you....!!!!!

finally got to use it last week. i am hooked on seeker blanks, light and very comfortable. cant wait to build another. gotta try a surf rod now that i got a 525 mag. thanks for all the compliments guys, first build i am willing to photograph. i took an old rod and practiced alot before i even touched this one. now i need to learn more decorative designs.
