Rod Building Supplies

Time for someone else to enjoy the process, to purchase, have made or make yourself all this stuff I estimate between $500-$600, so I'm going to price this at $275. I had some tooling done as you can see, I really didn't like the fiberglass reaming kits, the heat was an issue, so I had tapered reamers made, along with a tapered chuck I'd use to attached the rod but to a drill (with fiber re-inforced tape), that with handle clamps I made and the three supports and it was a quick and painless process to glue up and sand down handles. The drill mount that came from my old shop is there, drying motor, thread tensioner, boxes of thread, all the tools needed for putting on guides or making decorative butt wraps. I have Dale Clemons book on decorative butt wraps and step by step patterns of any wraps I've personally made. I'm going to post a few pictures here and will respond and post the balance.
