You may have to dip it a couple of times to make it fit. If it doesn't work, I'm sure you can just scrape it off.   You might even be able to find some brass tubing at a hobby shop that will fit the small end of the ferrell. It can then be superglued or epoxyed to be permanent.   Alan Di Somma Phoenix,AZ. ----- Original Message ----- From: Richard Zieger To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 21, 2004 3:46 PM Subject: [VFB] Rod help ? I have a two piece 8' 6"  6 wt that has sentimental vlaue to me.  The problem is that the bottom part of the rod is a little to small to fill the top part of the ferrel.   Is there some way to fix this.  If I cast very long with this the two pieces come apart. come apart.  The rod belonged to a good friend who died and willed it to me.   I know superglue would do it, but then I would not get the rod apart.   Rick
