Few Rods i've built *UPDATED*
Just got done with these few rods over this past month and was just wanting to show them to the forum. these rods aren't for sale, they have all been built for someone. i would appreciate any comments good or bad. if you have any questions I'd be glad to answer them the best i can. just started this hobby last year and slowly turned into a side business. hope yall enjoy.

Re: Few Rods i've built
Like the power descriptions in the larger font. What blanks are you using primarily?
Re: Few Rods i've built
Appreciate it cowboy, still using some of the supplies i got from you a while back!, and Fireant, mostly all of the rods i have built are off MHX blanks, for the quality and selection of the blanks you get for the money they are hard to beat. but of course, if the customer prefers something different then I'll build on whatever blank they choose.

Re: Few Rods i've built *UPDATED*
Good looking rods - I have been using the MHX blanks as well - can't seem to find anything close in options and price. Still haven't tried any micros - heard mixed reviews on them.
Re: Few Rods i've built *UPDATED*
Yeah i agree for the selection of powers and actions along with the lenghs MHX is the go to blank. i havent had to use their warranty service yet, but they seem to be top notch along with their customer service. micro's, I wouldn't recommend them if you plan to use a braid to Fluro setup, which ever knot you use double uni or improved Albright they will knock the guides and it just gets annoying over time. If you're just going to use straight braid, Fluro or mono then they are great IMO, Fuji has a tangle free micro guide that seems to work pretty good.
Re: Few Rods i've built *UPDATED*
Few more rods have been added. There's bunch that slipped away before i could get pictures of. wish i had a few more to show but, here are some fairly recent rods that i have completed.I added some pictures of some custom grips that I've done as well.
