Alan,

Between your reels and this 'ART WORK" near by I'd be constantly broke! Love the rapping/art work and immediately asked myself: where does this guy live"? Thanx for the answer Alan,

I used 1/16" cord for the handle and then put 2 coats of Spar Urethane on it for waterproofing. The pictures were taken before I treated the cord so I could capture the vibrance of the colors. The Spar Urethane darkens the cord a bit initially, but as it wears, the colors come back.
