Very nice, i like the concept. Loosely related I was thinking about that kayak gaff you made some time back, as an idea for my buddy's now broken rod.
Any machine is a smoke machine if you use it wrong enough.

I just made a Gaff for a Friend from a broken rod around 3 weeks ago, I never though on show it here because its way too basic and simple, basically I just dremel out the hoods of the reelseat and build a grip there, the rod already had its name (I restored that rod for him, he runs a fishing charter) took out the guides, cut the blank and installed the gaff hook
