I'm wrapping a rod right now with glow thread. I hate it. It doesn't glow all bright and I've packed the crap out of it and put sealer on it and the finish still wants to bleed through. I am using white. And it'll be the last time. I'll use paint over the wrap from now on. Maybe, someone else has a secret to it. John Scarborough

Spencer, you've talked me into it. I'm gonna have to order at least two of the sj703 sometime this week.

Norman that's a big 10-4 on that.

Thank you, everyone. I'll be stopping at whatever hobby store is in town and getting a quill pen and ink by Dr. Ph Martin. I'm kinda on my own on signing my rods and any other righting that I want done. Thanks again. John

Tyler, I'm the same way. I don't have very good penmanship either. But, I'm gonna give it a whirl and see what happens.

Thank you. I'll do that

Hello, This is my first post and has more than likely been mentioned. But, can anyone recommend a good pen for righting on blanks? Something thin lined that I can seal over. Thanks for any help and advice. John

Mark, I will get ahold of you. I've liked the Tennessee handle since I got one years ago. Thank you for your time.

Hello, I am building a rod with a Tennessee-style handle on it. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could get a set of polished aluminum or chrome rings for the reel. Thanks for any help I can get. John Scarborough

You might try Rodgeeks. They have a 6'6" medium light fast action. I think it is $49

Jeff, you can go to the national fishing lure collectors club they have a ton of information on old lures.
