    Default Update on the fly rod


    Over the next few days I’ll be doing some more towards finishing this project. I’ve been practicing the windings, decided on a chevron , and got the colors on tonite. Ran out of time but I’ll be binding it tomorrow and adding the hook holder. I think. Thanks for looking, and sorry I’m so slow. First pic is just starting the second color, and the others are chevrons complete, waiting for tomorrow.

    Lookin' good brother skeet. Don't worry about how long it takes. Heck, I keep as many as three and four projects going at one time and there's one thing I have learned... it's not to let my hobby and other DIY projects cause me any sort of anxiety or stress whatsoever. We'll be here when you're finished with it... Lord Willing.

    K, I learned a while back to do what you can and be satisfied with that. Also that just cause you have time doesn’t mean you’re ready to fool with it. Gotta have the head right, especially when you’re learning something new. It might have an issue or two but I’m happy with the way it turned out. Now to get it bound and lay out the guides. Soon.....

    That’s an astute observation. The older we get the smarter I hope.
    I’m loving the way it looks Skeet!
