im interested in learning how to.

[gilligan]

hello everyone. alright the season will be over before you know it and i got to keep myself busy or ill go crazy. i've looked into plug building but i would like to try to build a rod for myself instead . plugs and i just dont get along too well. i would just like to know where you guys learned how too(any links,) ? where you get your stock/supplies? how long it takes to build a rod at your skill level(ie 10 yrs experience, 2 years etc). and whats the cost too build one(material). i know of the pride one takes in his/her own work is priceless ,but i just want to know for material roughly. im sure that could be a touchey question. last but not least how about some pics of the last rod you built?
thank you in advance for any replys.
