I was wondering, do you think it would be possible to burn your name and rod info into the wood spacer of the fly rod? I mean opposite the side the reel will be placed?

Yep. It can be laser etched as well. Re: wood burning name

Do you think wood burning would be easier than trying write with my own hand? I think I could make a pattern in pencil and then follow it with the burner. I may be wrong about that but that's what I'm thinking. Re: wood burning name

Bruce,
No, I think that lettering the name would be much easier. Another thing to consider. If you are a person like me who doesn't have artistic lettering ability - get someone else to do the lettering on your rods. In my case, my wife is an artist who does all of my rod lettering. There are lots of very talented folks around. Roger Re: wood burning name

Yeah, Roger, I'm with you. I can't write legibly. I've practiced and practiced writing on blanks and after 6 years I haven't been satisfied with one. I guess I'll just keep using decals. I was thinking maybe if I would trace my name on the wood and then burn it it might not be too hard. But I've never done it beforeand I was just hoping.
