Would a light weight torque wrench be helpful in setting the screws @ 04:49 on the timeline?

Yep, guides have ruined the sport. And we have loved it to death. Oh well, I’m going fishing.

Once you get the strips split, it's like fitting a puzzle together.

Since you have all the parts made can’t the maker customize a rail to plain it.

Please tell me what your country is.

Ever sell ugly strips to first time rod builders? something they can practice with and not worry about ruining.

Looks like it takes more effort and a good pair of walking shoes compared to a razor sharp block plane? Those indexable carbide cutters you use are not sharp, but are adequate on machine tools with lots of power. Check out endmills ground from micrograin carbide blanks, they are super sharp.

This is clearly the Achilles heel of this plane. It's hugely awkward and time wasting based on the design. Really frustrating.

Nice video Ric.

Thanks for the inspiration. After watching this video a few months ago, I was super charged to complete my first one-piece using my Morgan Hand Mill and the extension bed I purchased many years ago. Mine is a 7.5 foot , 4-weight, hollow-build rod, which is based on a modified Payne 100 taper. Total weight of the finished rod is 3.1 oz!!! The end result is a rod cast like a dream. Smooth is a good word to describe the action; it's easily the smoothest rod I've ever cast! Everyone who casts it, can't put it down! Along with everything mentioned in the video, I'm truly amazed at the feel translated through a bamboo rod without a metal ferrule. Fantastic rod for fishing soft hackles! Already working on my next one-piece...an 8-footer! Thanks, guys. Joel

can you tell me? The name of the tool is long and where can it be purchased. Thank you, sir

Good to know! Thanks for this post, TMR!

Curious to know if the star splitter you used is commercially available? Thank you

Awesome video

Hi guys! Great video. I had a chance last fall to see the early prototype at your shop. What a great rod! Another Tom Morgan Rodsmiths first. Well done and good luck with this industry changing innovation! Best, Guy Hicks

What a beautiful interview. Thank you.

How long do you let the strips dry after planing?

Why is 5" being removed from each ends?

No heat treating?

Finest rod I’ve ever thrown - and prettiest, too!

Excellent
