Looking sharp.
  Thanks for sharing your work with us. 

Do you have plans, a list of needed supplies, or cost estimates for members who might be considering a similar build?

I just tweaked a few things to my liking. now i did use good quality red oak so my wood was a bit pricer but still think I only spent $50

Very nice. I have to do something like that as what I have was made from scrap pine and not really great. Thanks for sharing and including the link for the plans.
We're ready to see the first rod off it now!!!!
