I found and backed this Kickstarter by Gary Loomis.
I'm signed up for a 4wt blank that I will build for myself. This will be the most expensive blank I've built by a wide margin. My experience is limited (~15 graphite fly rods in the last five years). I build blanks to fish or give to friends and family. Would appreciate any thoughts you might have on this blank and how the process might need to be changed from a graphite rod build. Thanks.

No difference. The material is not going to change how the rod is built. configuration is the same and line is still matched the same way.
