I'm looking for a set of vintage / antique roller guides to recreate an old big game bamboo Rod. I would like to find the kind that look like small towers if you've ever seen those. Please let me know if you have anything like that Re: Antique / vintage roller guides

Martin,
I found these 2 guides on the big internet @#$%& site. Just do a search on the site - "vintage roller fishing rod guides". [www.rodbuilding.org] Of course they are not a complete set, but I wondered, if these were the guides that you were looking for? Be safe Re: Antique / vintage roller guides

Roger, thank you for the suggestion I have rollers like those. I'm looking for earlier vintage. I have a complete set of very old guides however the foot of each one is curved to fit the contour of a round blank. Since I'm using bamboo I don't think these would work. If you are familiar with the movie jaws, the rollers used on Quints rod are more like what I'm looking for. Re: Antique / vintage roller guides

Those sound like the old Mildrum rollers. Does each guide have four legs as the framework? Re: Antique / vintage roller guides
