    Jawdropping, literally.

    Nothing wrong with these posts at all.  It good for the members here to actually see what a true quality custom rod looks like.

    Man what brand of finish do you use? And would it be compatible with bamboo? Some finishes are too alkaline or caustic for bamboo. But I like that finish. For bamboo I'm usually stuck with Spar Varnish or poly.

    No kidding. I would love to sit in on a build session. I have an understanding of the mechanics of rod building, but lack the ability to take it from following a process to creating a work of art.

    Needless to say, but saying it anyways- Beautiful work!

    I use Classic Coat super build finish. As far as I know, there is no reaction with bamboo as two of my rods are OK with the finish.
