Steve,
Great pictures of both the blanks and wall of rods.
However, as you well know, it is not a good idea for long term storage of any rod to lean it against a wall. With long term leaning, many graphite rods will pick up a permanent bend.
Rather, put the blanks and rods in a bunch of garbage cans, so that the tips are not leaning against any thing.


Nice pictures.
Roger

Thanks Roger, I am well aware of bending issues as you pointed out. I my experience though it is usually the fiberglass rods more at risk, especially if heat or direct sun is an issue. After doing it this way for many years I have had absolutely no problems. The only rod I had take a set on me was a 1pc 11 foot fiberglass surf rod left in the car for a week. The tip was bent up by the windsheild and took a set. In the house nothing has ever taken on a bend.
