Mike I have a Lami SB 121 3m I would like to build as a Herring rod for the Canal. I want to go conventional. I would like to take 1' off the butt. Would it be possible to build this at the workshop next weekend? If so, would you have the available components? I guess I would want to use Fugi Hardloy guides, and a sic top, and a trigger reel seat, with cork tape, and one of those mushroom buttcaps that I like. Also was wondering if you will have wrapping thread, and other guides and such for sale there? I am not sure what colors I would want on this blank. I am heading out today to get some masking tape, and I will look for those clips you mntioned from the article. If I find the clips, I will get a bunch.

Bent Rods and Screaming Reels!
