I hope it is going well! It can be a little tricky at first, but with a little practice you’ll get the hang of it. I’ve never mentioned this on my channel, but you can go to Walmart or a sporting goods store and pick up an inexpensive telescopic “cane pole” type of a rod like one of these: www.walmart.com/ip/10-Black-Widow-Ready-Rig-Telescopic-Panfish-Pole-by-B-n-M-Pole-Company/15908257 and unscrew the butt cap and slide all the rod sections out and use them to practice on. They are tapered like a normal rod would be and have about any diameter you would ever run across when building a rod. Cheap too!
Old big thick bamboo rod, five pieces, about 17 feet long. One spot where the thread is coming loose. Can I use some kind of clear glue to hold it in place? I don't have a setup to rotate the rod section on while putting thread on.
@@sclogse1 Spar lacquer would probably be your best bet if the rod is old. That is what was most commonly used on older bamboo rods, so it should bond with the old finish.
Yes! Size “A” is similar to what I’m using in this video. Size “D” is a common size that has a thicker diameter and is much easier to work with for most people.

When you pull your thread out in the end, could I introduce new colour at that point so I pull two tag ends through
Sure!
Are there different thicknesses of wrapping thread ? I'm a beginner and I think what I'm using is awfully thin.
Yes! Size “A” is similar to what I’m using in this video. Size “D” is a common size that has a thicker diameter and is much easier to work with for most people.
