Looking for someone interested and experienced in rebuilding rods. i have a custom lami that a friend recommended that i should get stripped down and get the guides and reel seat replaced, basically rebuilt using the stripped lami blank.
dont know a lot about building rods in general but it seems as tho there are tons of knowledgeable guys on this forum ![]()

Neither did I ,...Until someone told me to do it myself.
I wanted a rod re-wrapped years ago,I thought about it,..I did it !,And I been building rods ever since,for my personal use. (NASTY habit,.in a fun way ) ![]() Last edited by Marky1 : 11-02-2009 at 09:22 PM. |

so have a "pro" do it would prolly cost you more than building a new blank.. you can buy a new honey blank for around $80.. it would take a proa few man hours to strip the rod, which is a PITA.. its not worth it unless you do it yourself. IMO.

just build for myself and friends but i agree with big country. it have rebuilt some of my own rods and only do it cause i wanted to try it and liked the blank. but its not worth the effort really. if you are justputting differnt guides in the same spot thats one thing but a complete rebuild is a big job.
