Rod building things.

I have not been very active in a long time on FAOL but I am back. Hope that some of you will remember me. I am with a Healing Waters group in Middle TN. and I am going to be building a 6wt fly rod. If it turns out good I will be intering it in the Healing waters rod building contest next year. I am looking for a nice handle and reel seat that will go with a black rod. I will also need back eyes and black tip top. I think an all black rod will be looking good. I am not sure what color the wrapping with be. Does anyone have a idea on a color? Newbee

All of the things I talked about on the new rod I want to buy if anyone has them to sell. The cork grip I would like it to be hand made by some one and I would like for it to be a little dark. Healing Waters group will be getting ready to do the rod building class the last part of January or the first part of Febuary. Newbee
