well if hes doing that kinda rod work chances are he has a power wrapper with a 45 degree offset to do the chevrons, with that thing it makes it easy! I agree though, im not into that glitzy rod work either, but it does take some serious talent to do that stuff. I build rods that are durable for catching fish, not to have people look at me like an expert but to each his own.
I had a guy in central pa come up to me and tell me all about his "parabolic custom action feather inlayed silk transparent wrap agate stripper bamboo stick" that he paid 2000 dollars for and when he asked me what kind of rod I had I simply replied, "a brown one"....
