Why build? How much I am really going to save? As a novice, I would buy an inexpensive blank and when finished have an inexpensive rod. Or buy an expensive blank and screw it up as a first timer So, why do it? Is personal satisfaction and gratification enough?

I am wrestling with this idea and keep going back and forth between building and buying.
