Re: kb newest wood rod handles
Very nice KB. I like Feather inlays. Fun to do and really dress up a rod. Your handles are great!

i do both on old rods or i do blanks i dont put any taper on the handles about every inch on rod blank i put some masking tape on rod and fill the spaces in between with rod bond resin kb just put enough tape to make it tight to sides of wood handle. i know that's not a very good way to explain but its the best i know kb |

Re: kb newest wood rod handles
It's funny that my tackle habbit (addiction) started with building fishing rods.The newest craze is makking handles from 8# foam.As soon as i recover from shoulder surgery I am going fishing ,then to my hideout to make a rod and some sawdust  |
