Building the own fly rod reel seat

Hey there,
I just like to build my own fly rod reel seat, for a small trout rod. So I have a few questions about.
I’m looking for a mechanical drawing of the reel foot adapter (I hope you know what I mean). As well, what kind of thread do you normally use on a reel seat (3/8Inch or a metric like M17x1)?
If someone could help me, would be nice. Sorry about my English 

Best regards from Switzerland

They're all different. I don't think there are any mechanical drawings of them except at the companies that make the seats.

Pascal,

where are you located in Switzerland ? I live 15 minutes far from Geneva, on the French side of the border, I though I was the only one on that site from our area.

Tu parles français oder sprichst du Deutsch ?

I have already tried several times to build some reel seats, maybe the problems that I have faced during these attempts could be useful for your , do not hesitate to send me an email.

Frantz
