hey guys
i am new to this and need some help if ya dont mind. i have two old surf rods two piece in 10 ft that my uncle gave me when i was about 10 or 12. this is what im starting on for practice to learn how.every thing needs replaced except the reel seats. i am going to replace the cork grips with foam ones and change the guides. what do i strip the finish off the blank with? and determine what size guides to put back on? one will have a garcia 6000 on it and the other im going to make a jigg pole out of it for crappie fishing so it will have a small spinning reel on it . thanks for any help yall can give me !

In the library section have a look at the article on refinishing by Ralph O'Quinn
[www.rodbuilding.org] Another article in the library for the guides is "THE NEW GUIDE CONCEPT PRIMER" by Tom Kirkman [www.rodbuilding.org] Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
