A photo of a rod that I made for my wife. It's made of Padauk, Wenge and Maple. The problem with this rod is that my wife informed me that she doesn't like to use a spinning rod. I now have learned a valuable lesson on listening to your customer (lol). It was good practice for me to work on the rose wrap.

I put together a few handles and made a trade for some blanks. The top is made of walnut, cherry, and maple. The insert is ipe with maple wedding bands. Second from the top is walnut with bloodwood trim. Third from top is Wayne's Ipe with maple eliptical and trim. Forth from the top is Bloodwood with Copano cork. The bottom is maple with a bloodwood elliptical and checkers. The insert is what was left over from a spider web blank.

I have a couple of rods going to Samsara Cues to thank them for the use of the spider web pattern. The one on the left is White Oak and Blood Wood. The one on the right is Walnut and Maple. If you want to see the original designs they are on www.samsaracues.com once again Jim and Dave Thanks for the ideas. I almost forgot to thank Billy V as well.
