[QUOTE="woodyard, post: 5077200, member: 2777"] [ATTACH]71050[/ATTACH][ATTACH]71051[/ATTACH] Finally finished after 4 coats of polyurethane and sanding with the two rods. Still got to finish up the other tip blank. Probably get it in the next couple of days. Not as I would like them to be, but not bad for not doing any of it in 16 years or so. Had to get warmed up. This is the process for rods made by hand. The guys that do them for money can usually turn out one in 40 hours, those that use machines such as bevelers, etc, maybe quicker. Then I will be ready for a trip to try them out on a trout and give ruger one of them. See what he thinks of bamboo! Lol [/QUOTE]
