NExt time put a coat of finish over the wrap & initial tie off. This way when you wrap teh guide on it will have a smooth base and the thread won't be so bumpy or stacked up. Nice job though.

James, I do these on some fly rods, so I only do it on the first 2 guides as the other guides are single foot.
Billy, thanks for the tip
