Hello All,
I am making an ultralight with a Fuji NPS (18) and plan to mount it down-locking. After trying it out, I would like to cut down the non-locking end with the integral hood. Has anyone done this? Does anyone think that this will cause structrual problems so long as I do not cut higher than the end of the hood? Thanks, Erik Re: Cutting Down the Non-Thread Side of a Fuji NPS?

You know, I just built a rod with this seat and was ticked I didn't cut that part off. IT's a litttle too long for my liking. I do not think there is any structural concern, but I would make sure I do not cut so far that teh hollow are where the reel foot goes sticks out. I guess you could check teh depth using a paperclip or something prior to cutting so you don't go too far. Do me a favor if you do this, let me know ho it turns out.
