Two spine questions: 1.) Generally, is the spine always straight or can it wrap around the length of a section of a blank? 2.) Are than any instances when you would want to orient the spine 180 degrees between the tip and butt section on a two piece blank?

Tom I just recently purchased your book Rod Building Guide. I guess I am one of the guys you were refering to when you said confusion still exists even among those builders who have built many rods. I learned to build rods by reading Dale Clemens books 20 years ago. In Advanced Custom Rodbuilding Dale states that the point where the rod seems to jump or produce increased resistence is the spline.

I have just received a new G. Loomis "Slate" IMX 9' 10 wt 3pc. The tip section has a considerable bend that does not line up with the spine. Is it better to wrap the guides inline with the bend? Or should I wrap along the spine in spite of the bend? Thanks in advance for your responses, Chris

Could anyone tell me the pros and cons of the spiral wraped guides?
