How To Repair A Rod Part A

Recommended Posts

When you have snapped a rod, they are not that hard to fix. You have to have a sacrificial rod though, I tend to keep all old/broken rods for this reason. You must first clean the eyes off of the old rod.

Next you need to slide the sacrifical piece (blank) into the bigger (bottom) part of the rod and mark it.

then you will slide the top part down onto the blank until it is snug with the bottom part and it should be a tight fit.

Next, you will use a dremel tool with a cutting head on it to cut the blank to the size you want

then you will set up to glue the rod together

you must glue the bottom first, I use a tool to put glue inside of the rod and then slide the blank inside of the rod and use a coat hanger to push it through the glue and pull it snug.
