I just posted a pic on the photo page of a tool i acquired with an inheritance of other rod building and fly tying tools, equip and supplies. I've been at it now for a few months learning rod building and this looks like a weaver tool maybe but i have no clue if thats right nor how to use it....anyone? Re: What is this?

It's the Inlay jig Clemens used to sell. You can make checkerboard patterns. Place a length of grip, line up the lines on both teh disks. Take a hacksaw, exacto saw, slice lengthwise, keeping the blade inside teh slots on each side of the jig. Repeat with another color. Glue up these pieces in alternating colors, to form a circle with contact cement. Place new grip on a manderl/spare blank, slice even thickness rings. Now re-glue buy offset teh rings so it forms a checlkerbord. Re: What is this?

Here are examples of what you can do, if you look around the Photo Page, you'll find a few other guys who have done this in cork & wood

Posted the answer on the photo board. PVC is half of a J. J.'s Jig for cork, and the other is a jig for EVA. Originally sold by Clemens Tackle.

Your photo appears to be two jigs for cutting cork checkerboard inlays. The plastic sleeve is a JJ's jig for cutting out inlays from individual cork rings. The other apparatus is a Clemens inlay jig for cutting out inlays from cylinders of cork or eva. I believe you can find full instructions in Clemens' Advanced Custom Rod Building.

The Clemens Advanced book is actually in the collection as well just figured I'd work thru the beginners materials 1st so never saw it.
Thankyou all this has been very helpful - This hobby is so amazing/fun so far! Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
