|
|
I've recently started building my own rods but can't quite figure out how to do a diamond wrap. I've searched YouTube and Mudhole but can't find a good video on it. Can anyone help me learn? Thanks _________________ Jake |

Go to Roy's Bait and Tackle and pick up the Dale Cleman's "Custom Rod Thread Art".
Great book with a lot of patterns... _________________ It's all about the family..... |

Perfect!!! Thanks for the help. One more question though. How do I get the reel seat off of a blank? I'm stripping down an ugly stick to re-do it. Thanks! _________________ Jake |

| I use a dremel to get them off. Just take your time and don't cut deep |
