My plan, if I live long enough, is to become a master rod builder. I'm working my way up from the butt end, mastering one component at a time. One advanttage of this approach is that I don't have to decide whether I will make graphite or cane rods until I finish my grip apprenticeship. That should take another dozen years. :-) Thanks for putting the pictures up Dave.
