Thanks for the video, do you make other hardware for fishing rods? If so I would love to see more videos! And do you suggest any books if I was thinking about starting to make my own hardware? Making ferrules, guides, reel seats and what not.

Hi Josh - thanks for the note! We actually do have a few more videos planned, though actual rodmaking keeps getting in the way it seems. I'm not sure about books that target fly rod hardware specifically. I think that some general machining books might be useful depending on your backround. I like to read old machining books and often will pick up a trick or two that I didn't know about. Is that helpful?

GooooooooooooD!
