Rod Building Jig

[steelfish]

It seems to me having the rod closer to you & the thread out of the way makes more sense with your setup Alex.

Agree

but I want to take credit of that "idea" or invention, mine its just a DIY setup (using whatever I had on hand, so it was free cost ) based on the Renzetti rod wrapper (high class) and also checking what other guys have made on DIY rod wrapping jigs

I use a homemade thread bobbin simliar to this, made from coat hanger, ink pen refill, and shrink tubing.  Of course i cannot put constant pressure on the thread but with practice it works. I turn the rod by hand on a couple homemade stands.  Drying is done with a BBQ rotisserie motor.  Bill

Black on black is difficult to see. The fish just don't care.

This is the largest guide on any rod I own or could have picked to be my 1st to do.If you can imagine
1" of wrapping on each foot.I would think easier on a smaller scale? Steve, you must have years of experience to wrap in a lazy boy !

I first wrapped a rod 61 years ago and the quality of my work has been on a steady decline ever since.  The arms on the chair support the rod.  A strip of 1/8 inch wide masking tape up against the base of the foot (or feet) holds the guide in place until you can get the wrap going.  Filing down the tip of the foot to a knife edge makes it easy to wrap up over the hump.  The hardest part is remembering to have a knife to cut the tape and a pull string within reach before beginning the wrap.
