'Bout finished w/ this one. Waiting on the tip top so I can wrap the guides. The catalog specs said a size 5 tip, but it's a 4.5.
Specs: 7' ATC Matrix 842 6-12lb 1/4-1/2
ATC TiChrome GCUE/GCSF guides
Fuji TCSD-16 seat
First time gluing up cork rings and shaping
Glass Coat epoxy

You did a great job. Wrap looks really good. The cork looks great. Shaping cork is an art in itself.

Brew Nice work!
That is a true work of art! Someday I might have the patience to do that. Want a job in my shop? LOL
