tagger, i understand what you want to do, but the idea is not very practical (2 sets of guides - cast/spin same rod). with the technology of braid and ceramic guides, you can do what you want by having a rod built as a caster, but use at least a size 30 guide as the catch guide and space it out as far as you can from the reel w/o the line touching the blank. then, continue building as a caster, tapering guides down to size 12s. as mentioned, put a reel seat w/o a trigger on. if you want to put the spinning reel on it, turn the rod around. the rod will be stable as the spinner as well. i would definitely tape the guides on and make several test casts to be sure you dont have line slap or wind knot problems. good luck.
