unfrozen Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 This one is for me. The blank is a Rainshadow XP841, the handle and reel seat are turned from a piece of stabilized spalted big leaf maple burl, the guides have zirconium rings and were positioned on the rod using the 27X method and static testing. I finished up the build with a closed diamond wrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad Peterson Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Looks like a very nice rod. Would love to try it on crappies and sunfish Chad.Sniffer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scupper Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Beautiful! Your thread color choice's for the guides and the diamond wrap really compliment and mirror the spalted burl. Great artistic eye. Enjoy your new piece of functional art... Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upnorth Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Had to look up the specs. Looks to be a nice action blank for Crappies. Nice work too. As per usual nice, neat and clean. That is craftmanship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
