Thanks again Dave, it is just about done. I took a few pics along the way, and my rod building sensi showed me a cool way of aligning the 3 guides around the rod. Saved me a few bucks too because I was able to go down a few sizes on the guides (SIC). expensive little buggers. I will post the pics when I get done. I did offset the stripper guide approx 30 degress, I was also told by offsetting it it will cast a little better. The trial seemed to work pretty well. Thanks again, enjoying my new craft alot, I enjoy the challenge of learning a new skill.....

Used hard and put away dirty....
