About the second guide you dealt with (the one you moved slightly lower), how did you stick it to the main body of the rod (you call blank if i understood correctly) BEFORE you start wrapping it with the thread? Epoxy again?
GeorgeExT Sorry we missed your comment. What we do is take a lighter and heat the guide foot and swipe it on guide foot adhesive (Hotglue stick). We then stick the guide on the blank. Watch from 2:50-3:30 ua-cam.com/video/ofgn7m9j2Qw/v-deo.html

Very professional. Thanks for such a great tutorial.
Great explanation! Easy to understand and follow! Thank you!
Great Tutorial! So for the top EYELET you only use that original appoxy strap you put inside it? no wrap or appoxy on the outter shell?
