I LOVE that this info is available to you folks!
Beware though! I watched a similar video when I first started and thought to me puny self..."Self, you can do this!"
Of course you can!
The "beware" part are the parts not normally shown (because it doesn't make good TV) and the time and money invested!
The latest investment of time and money is a pressure cooker impregnator for making reel seat inserts.
No big deal really...just find an old good pressure cooker, buy a reversable pump that pulls a vacuum as well as applying pressure, make your "goo" and make it all happen.
It's all part of making a good flyrod and things that will likely never be noticed because it works the way it's supposed to.
SO...BEWARE to you all! LOL The road has no end! It's not supposed to! We all know what happens when we reach the end of the road!
You've been duley warned and it's off my shoulders!
Luv ya all!
Mike
