There are a few little glitches with these set of pages (not all the links seem to be working at the moment), but for some really funny rod making mis-adventures, check out this URL:

I've notified the web dude that runs the site (he's a good buddy of mine, so I gave him hell...) that the links aren't links, so hopefully, he'll get 'em up soon. There are some really hysterically funny stories here.

Thanks for the tips Rex. I hadn't given a thought to the problems of build up or hardware, I was just concerned about the finish sticking.
I think I will quit while I am ahead with the reel-seat.
I do have an old blank covered with wraps used to test thread colors, I'm going to experiment with that using your and Tony's tips.
I'm glad you enjoyed the saga. I have had more than a few misadventures (usually caused by my inexperience or ineptness ) where
the pain inflicted has been repaid with laughs in the retelling.
