Beautiful workmanship.
The real issue with single foot guides is in transport. When fishing they are fine.

Drew just finished my KL-H build. Like you mentioned, the tall guides may bend but they bend back. Providing the ring doesn't crack. Regardess, any guide ring make will crack if hit hard enough on rocks. BTW the 10' Lami Infinity final weight, 10.6oz. My aging body should like that.!
