My brother passed last year and I now have all his FF equipment. He built rods and some he built are not marked as to the weight.
The ones that are finished I can put a reel with a line on and get a good idea what they are, but I am in a quandary as to how determine the weights of the ones with just a handle and the bare blanks. I have two blanks and two with handles mounted.
I also have two other blanks that are marked - one a 2wt which is complete with handle, guides and tip. (I would like to have it built for me) and one in a case with a slip of paper stating 1 wt 6 6, which I assume is a 1 wt 6’6"" blank. One of the other blanks has a piece of masking tape marked M27 - the color is like the Fenwick FF rods.
I can take and post pictures if they would be of any help.
I also have his rod building equipment - two wrapping jigs - two turners - handle files and supplies I have not gone through and cataloged.
So any help would be appreciated.
