Beautiful job Kerry. Post a picture after you have applied the epoxy.
Are you going to bring this one to Woodland?

Thanks guys

Epoxy on the weave is drying in the dryer as I type this. The Rod will be coming to Woodland. Am waiting for a sample of finish to arrive from a company to test on the guide wraps on the tip section.

See you in Woodland in a couple weeks.

Looks nice.

I too am looking forward to meeting you guys in Woodland and saying thanks for being helpful on this forum. See you on the 9th & 10th.
