When selecting guides for rod building, use a piece of corrugated
cardboard with small holes punched and numbered by size. Put the
guides in order of placement on the rod. This will help keep sizes
from being mixed up and/or misplaced when working with the guides,
(such as when grinding or filing the guide feet). ~ Capt. Paul
(aka qrrfish1)

Publishers note:
If you have any tips or techniques, send them along! Help out your
fellow rodmakers!
