122. Re: Guide Alignment
I did kind of like Bill did only instead of using a groove and line I used a old broken spinning reel and cut the top off and I simply glued a lazar pointer on top and you can pretty much just Eye it from there do to the blank being perfect or not.

125. Re: Polyurethane
I use clear scotch tape over my ink writings and then brush my Perma-Gloss polyurethane over it and the ink never runs and the tape is invisible once it is dry with not even a sign of it.

If you are using Tip Top cement already then about the only other thing that you might try to do is wrap a little bumper wrap snug up to the tube of the Tip Top and Epoxy over the Bumper thried with the Epoxy drying over the tube. When you size your Tip Top on your rod do not select the Tip Top with a tube that is loose as you want the Tube of the Tip Top to fit snug but not to snug as in tight.

The Rod that I am working on has a tube size of 7.5 but it needs size 6 or less ring size and so far I cannot find one so has anybody made there own like with a Mico guide tied to the tip of the Rod.

In order to extend a flipping stick and it is really quit simple. The first thing you need is some texolon tubing and some Rod building glue. Now normally you would insert your tube into your blank,but if you do it like that your telescopic flipping stick will not extend anymore. To fix this problem how about if we just slip the tube over the blank and then glue the tube over the outer blank and

How does the action on a MHX blank compair to a Loomis because when I look a the MHX M/H compared to a Loomis M/H the specs are much different.

Also this will be a shooting type rod and I will be using from 20lb braided line t

I have a telescopic rod that I need to turn into a one piece rod and all I can think of to do this is with little bit of rod bond. If I do it this way will I lose any sensitivity. This will be a flipping rod / frog rod so a little lose of sensitivity is not going to be such a bad thing.

System Requirements
VisualWEAVE will run under the following operating systems:
Windows XP
Windows Vista
Windows 7
Visual Wrap needs Windows 98 or 97 to work
Look both up on YouTube for a good understanding of how both work.

Linseed Oil works really good and it does not turn the cork to dark and it seal the water and dirt out.

That what I was looking for Bill as I always go the NCP way and that is exactly why ,my
motor is a 12 rpm dryer so it sounds like from what you say I should not even have a problem.

Tom if you have ever used CP! You wil find that the CP tends to dry with a build up or lump so when you put epoxy over it the epoxy tends to dry with a hump where the guide feet are so how do I element this problem. I want it to dry with more of that smooth look that you get with NCP.

What is your best way of applying CP to a wrap without getting that lumpy bumpy affect after applying the epoxy to it.

149. Spine up or down
Should the spin on a flipping rod be located on the top or bottom becasause it will be a flipping rod and not a casting rod and it needs to be stiff as it is a heavy action rod unlike a normal rod.

Why does epoxy turn dark and do you clear the epoxy up again.
