The WanXcamo Rod

Another simple built for this light power CRB Xcamo blank.


It goes very well with this camo reel seat from American Tackle.




Handle setup with cork foregrip and split handle.



Spiral guide placement with white Pearsall Gosammer's silk thread for transparent wrapping effect which I simply called it as the "super glued" wrapping.



After epoxy.



A close up shot on the guides. The silk thread will be transparent after come into contact with the epoxy and it looks as if the guides foot are glued and coated with epoxy. That is why I called it "super glued" wrapping.

 I am using Thread Master epoxy and so far it has not disappointed me.

A coating of U40 Cork Seal for the finishing touch.
