Thanks to everyone here for the help and "putter" for the way he tapers his wraps. I really like the look, so I just posted photos of the first three that I have done and woud really appeciate your opinions. Still working on a flat finish, although I believe I finally had it with the rod I'm working on now, until it fell off the table while turning with the final coat on. Darin Travis Re: first wraps

Isn't getting the finishing touches on our work an on-going labor of love, though? Sounds like you're having lots of fun decorating those rods up. Keep up the good work, Darin. Putter Williston, ND Re: first wraps

Lookin' Good, Darin. Don't worry, good finishing takes time and practice. If you don't already have it, a ecent issue of Rodmaker has a great "no brai" method of obtaing a perfect finish every time. The biggest mistake that you can make is using too much finish Mike (Southgate, MI) If I don't want to, I don't have to and nobody can make me (except my wife) cuz I'm RETIRED!! Re: first wraps

Thanks everyone, and I am addicted. clamped the stand down now so that won't happen again. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
