Color Change Ferrule Wrap on an old 9' 3-Jays spinning rod I am rebuilding for personal use. Madeira thread and acrylic CP.


Yes....I am a beginner, but you have to start somewhere.

Tight wraps Derek! Those colors would make a nice fade.

Billy....
That is not chartreuse I am afraid just bad lighting. It is more of a bright lemon yellow. The Polyneon chartreuse is even HOTTER. The photograph was taken under a combination of Daylight and "Kitchen/Bath" 4 flourescent bulbs and I was hoping the color rendition would be better.


Ugh! Too early on my day off....need coffee

You did a great job of fading Derek. Wrapping nice and tight and you managed to keep the light colors really clean. Sometimes I have trouble with florescents because of the hand oils. Constantly washing them.
