I'm going to build a surf rod for my son, and I plan to try a rattlesnake skin inlay. I'm also partly color blind.
I would appreciate suggestions as to what color wraps would compliment the snakeskin. Knowing thread color requirements in advance will save me a second trip to the Mudhole. Thanks. Re: snake colors

You won't ever go wrong with Burgundy and Gold.
My favorite for something subtle with a Diamondback skin is HT Pewter Metallic and Nylon Tan. The only issue is getting the thread. Of course, the blank will have a LOT to do with deciding on the correct threads. Here is a link a Pewter/Tan combo. Lamiglas Tri-Flex, Fuji BMNAG guide. The rod has a Diamondback inlay within a split butt grip. [www.rodbuilding.org] Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 09/22/2008 06:00PM by Jim Gamble. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
