I for one have not forgotten your original post and have eagerly awaited the follow up. I can't wait to see how it comes out. Good luck with the build.

Thanks for the update! If you dont mind...what were the specs on the rod (i.e length...supposed line wt, # of pieces?)?? Was this one of the imported blanks or the "American Made" blanks?
Thanks

This is the Rod Building Kit, 7' 4wt 2 piece with the imported blank. You can see it at:

Yay!! We're going to get a report as PF builds!! I'm really curious as to what you think of the rod .... so far, it sounds great!

A friend is not who knows you the longest, but the one who came and never left your side.
Don't look back, we ain't goin' that way.

I have built a rod on one of the same blanks and I love it. Used it most of the week at the Michigan Fish In.
The main complaint that I had was the ferrules were mounted on the rod prior to thinning the ferrule tabs and this made for some tricky work before wrapping the ferrules.
I will try and post a few pictures when I get a chance.
