DIY Rod Building
So you want to build your own rod? Rod Building is not too difficult, but making a good job is hard, it either takes a lot of time and care, or a lot of experience. But there is no reason why the careful amateur cannot make a first class job, and its great fun to fish with a rod you made yourself. Most rods today are made from carbon fibre mixed with epoxy resin. The main ingredient of most blanks is unidirectional carbon fibre, with perhaps some woven fabric. Glass fibre when used in rods is usually as a woven fabric.Ring preparation is important. It can make the difference between a tidy and a messy job. The purpose of preparation is to make sure the rings you have selected have smoothly tapered feet. You cannot whip over a burred foot with a step in it. Rings leave the factory ready to use, but a little bit of grinding and filing makes the job easier. Make sure every foot tapers down finely to the blank, that there is no step, and no burrs. Rod builders use either two pack epoxy high build resin, or sometimes a UV curing system. The epoxy systems give a great finish and are the only type available for amateurs.
