I've started my newest project. It is a DanCraft 6 wt FTL. It's 9 feet long and 6 pieces, but is a very light blank. I've got an amboyna seat with titanium finish to go on it and have decided to splurge a little and try the new Titan guides. I thought I'd give some updates as I go through the process.

First, here is the original kit.



The seat is now fitted up.



Now for the big decision--colors. These are the colors that I pulled out to look at. I'm really leaning toward the garnet, but the blue dun might be nice, too. I'm sticking with light weight, though, so there won't be any trim bands or anything like that. Just a basic, short wrap on each guide. I think chestnut (not shown) would look great, but I used it for my 2 weight and would like something a bit different.



I'll start wrapping on guides later in the week. More to follow.
