[striperswiper]

Hello,

I have been reading many books and have gone to a rod building class at CMS but I don't recall reading what winding checks are for and when you use them. I am also wondering how you determine the size of the wrap, meaning the width on either side of the guide??
I was planning on using cork tape for the handle, do use one layer or two?, how do you finish the tape off at the reel seat and but end? I know you use a butt wrap to finish off the fore grip what about the other ends??? Any guidence will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
