First attempt At Rod Building

[CosmicCat]

Hi
Bought a Conoflex of scaley the other week.
I stripped it down the bare rod sanded it all down recoated it.
put on new shrink tube, new tip , then whipped all the eyes on and used a poxy to seal them all in, rod was finished of today with last seal to shine it all up.
hope it looks ok as never tried this before.

cheers mick

Looks fantastic. How on earth did you manage the eyes so well. I have whipping but it looks crap when I put an eye on.
