Now that I looked @ the Angler resource site and tried their calculations I'm more confuse than before. The blank is an 11' 2-piece equal lengths. The second set up puts all the guides on the tip section. Went back to basics and use 2 different methods for aligning the tansition guides. First way was stringing the line to the center of shaft and tying it off @ 72 to the #10 choker on top of ring. Mind you I'm using a Diawa Emblem 5k with a spool diameter of 2.67" . The layout is as follows: 40L@ 59.7 or the 30K 59.6 (havent decided which one to buy maybe both to testcast) is @31from spool face. The remaining guides KW 25 @ 47.5", KL16( 26.2 works) @ 61"& KT 10 ck @ 72". 5 KT 10 runners to fill the 29.625" space to tip. Since I yet to have the K guides in stock I used the SV for size reference along with a MM ruler.

The next set up is from the top of spool lip to underneath the guide rings to the ckr under ring. This gave me from front of lip a KW40L/KW30 @ 36", KW 25@50.5", KL 16 @ 62" and ckr KT10 @ 72". same measurement to tip w/ 5 runners.
Opinions/suggestions? Thanks
