I'm needing some help with the guide spacing on a 12 foot crappie dipping rod the ones I'm finding only go to 10 foot.

The olive branch on my last rod turned out way better

I am looking for some emerald green graphite gloss blanks. I think they make beautiful rods, but I cant find them for sale anywhere. I want to build light spinning rods 6' to 7' 1 piece walleye/panfish rods. You guys really helped out the last time I couldn't find blanks.

Thanks mark I appreciate the time u took to help me out

My father in law broke one of his favorite rods a couple years ago right almost flush with the back of the grip(now missing about 4 inches of blank and fighting butt) where can I find small pieces of blank to graft on here?
Forum: rodboard

Can anyone give me any tips or secrets to ending an olive branch pattern, the pattern I have figured out pretty good but the bottom part where I transition to the next part either doesnt meet up good or looks like a jumbled mess. Any tips will help

The git bit speckled perch rod is backordered but git bit doesnt tell u there stuff is backorder until days after I've ordered and played for it
Forum: rodboard

Hey guys, I'm curious what the proper way to order these reel seats are, they come in half mm sizes. Do I order the size closest to where the front seat measures on the blank and ream the back seat till it fits, or do I order the size to the rear size and make small arbors with tape till they are snug and have little gaps (that will be covered by checks I guess)

Thanks paul thats the anser i was looking for
Forum: rodboard

I'm looking to start with them being square to the intersecting thread
Forum: rodboard

So I'm looking to try a cross wrap design, but im a little confused (or maybe just slow) is the intersection spacing the rod diameter or half the circumference. Some insight on how u guys lay one out would really help me out. Thanks Jody

I've just started building rod so this probably won't be an issue for a while, but I was wondering if it was legal for me to build rods from the suppliers online (mudhole, Fitbit, ect) and put my "brand" on it, or will this be infrequent? Some guys I work with think I need to jump on a brand name and put them on the rods I make.
Forum: rodboard

Thank u guys, another question, I've never done anything with fly rods so rod "weight" is French to me. Is there a clear comparison to "power"?
Forum: rodboard

Great! Thank u!!

Hi guys , first time poster. I've been looking on here for a while to get tips and tricks. Today I'm looking for a pretty particular application. I have someone looking for me to build a crappie dipping rod, he wants it to be around 12 foot and medium-light action. The only things I'm finding are "steelhead" blanks and are expensive... any suggestions for a cheaper blank?
