Title: Alternative to ferrule dots (multi piece rod alignment)
Post by: The Fishing Hobby on October 23, 2019, 09:46:30 PM
I thought someone might be interested in this. These would be used on a ferrule wrap to aid alignment of multi-section rods while assembling them. Paint dots or even decals are used sometimes, but if you are doing wraps anyway...might as well go ahead and wrap in a thread in a straight line to accomplish the same thing.

That's a pretty cool idea! I might have to use it on the next 2 piece rod I do....

Thanks!

Been a paint dot man, but building it right in would be extremely classy as well as functional.
