BASIC FEATHER INLAYS - Readers Cast (Kevin Proctor) - February 15, 2010
BASIC FEATHER INLAYS
Basic feather inlays are easy to do and add a touch of class to any rod. In this how-to, I am going to show you how to do a basic single feather inlay on the butt wrap of the rod and a pair of feathers for alignment marks where the two pieces come together. The photography is not the greatest, but will suffice for the purpose of demonstrating the process.
Kevin, excellent tutorial! Now you've gone and done it and it appears I'll be trying this in the near future. Keep it coming.

And to think, all these years I thought it was done by someone well versed in the black arts that had sold their soul. Nice step-by-step, and a great looking rod. Who needs alignment dots when you have alignment JC nails.
