Something i found to make the markings more consistent on the blank is to get your circumference and measure out your markings one one longer piece of tape and get that on nice and straight. I always use a good caliper too.

is there any benefit to a coat of finish over your base layer before doing the diamond - in terms of making it easier to pack, etc? Of course the penalty is adding some weight I realize
@reelbluecustomrods

Thank you for asking. Yes, I think there is a time and a place to do so (and I have done it), but I would lean towards doing all the thread work before epoxy. And here is why. Depending on how much thread work I have, I usually have to apply three to four coats of epoxy for a finished product. That means I could have to apply more than that if I have multiple layers of thread work on top of epoxy. This would result in a finished product with a thicker look to it than normal. Thoughts?

@@reelbluecustomrods Thank you for the video I just subscribed. I will put down a coat of epoxy on my big game rods if I put metallic over 3 layers of nylon on the guides just to be sure I have a good soaking under the guides and the extra weight is not a problem for me. I like to experiment with every rod. Right now components are difficult to find and I'm using some threads from craft stores which can be a challenge in themselves. You do very nice work and I'm looking forward to watching your videos.

Tape it off, and then come back with an over wrap to secure it. As you get closer to the end of your over wrap, carefully cut the decorative wrap below away from the double sided tape. Then continue the over wrap over the cut ends and then tie it off. Hope this helps.

Why use the butt circumference instead of the circumference from the center of the wrap location ?

Because it’s the largest spot in the blank, and then the formula helps you figure the spacing from there.
