While parts for customers rods are drying and still waiting on some parts for other customers I decided since it has been a year since I built myself a rod it was time to rectify that. Picked up a 10ft 5wt 4pc Xi series blank the other day and now tonight turned down an insert for the seat I plan to use and glued up / turned a bunch of burl cork into a grip for it. Just finished applying the 5th coat of spar to the grip. Should be ready to install the seat & grip about midnight.
