built this for some permit and bottom fishing, in the 30-60lb class 8' fast action extra heavy..this is a bridge rod,built to take a beating..
looks like i got the pic uploading figured out. Now just need to sort them in order.
either way i did the under wrap reflective and also from the tip down under 3 guides..

No sarcasm son .......that is a beautiful rod. Looking forward to seeing and holding it in real time but until then I think it's a very nicely done piece. Barret-esque

Badass looking wrap.

Question: Marcos the wrap looks too perfect to have been done by hand. I know it's done by hand but is there a machine involved that lays down the thread? Is the design programmed in somehow? I've never seen it done and would rather ask you than find a YouTube vid.

Richard it is done by measurements and calculations ,some wraps r done eye balled ,also there is a program for d computer that you put your blank measurements and it will tell you ......but even tho with all that its not easy .......WTH its Marcos?i want to see the guides pic

TY its all done thread by thread,one next to each other up n down the blank. i pack them tight every couple wraps..only machine is a lathe to spin the rod,but thats not used on butt wraps. used more for under waps or guide wraps..

Amazing you could design and free hand something that intricate. I wear loafers so I don't have to tie laces lol. That last pic looks absolutely three dimensional. Juan told me you were really good but nothing like this. I'll follow up with a PM

Gray White n Black fit together really good

What he did is to draw a line on the 0 and 180 axis and then space marks every repetition.

One color up the other color down and as far as I can see about 20 threads strong with the the white cornered as last thread with one black to give it a face. The background is the grey giving it that 3rd dimension look

Then you wind up with that look.

You do that with an x axis and 2 way up 2 way down you wind up creating diamonds. Basically wrapping around the x equakls diamonds

Well done
