Nice work, Kerry. Those colors would look real good on a Super Seeker too.

don't do it. its a ugly habit. there's thread scraps all over the house.epoxy on the floor and blanks scattered all over the spare bedroom. it consumes all my spare time. really though its great to create something and them use it to catch a fish. several places have all the info you need. acid rod .com is a socal based company that can set you up with all you need for info and supplies. i started building when i was young doing guide repair and basic wraps and then in the last couple years i got really into the thread art. thanks to all that have said the nice things about my work .

I'd say if you got the grips, reel seat and butt wrap knocked out in one night, you are the man. Nice looking work.
