The Color of Cane

Here are some strips for a 7' 2/2 Four Weight rod based on a Payne 98. Rod # N - 431608. These sticks are ready to be spliced. No flaming has been done to this culm. It was oven treated in two steps to get the moisture out of the bamboo and add a little bit of color. 



Dipping Rod #N - 431606 Nodeless 7' 2/2 Four Weight

This rod is now final dipped and drying to be polished.




Rod #N - 431607 Nodeless 2/1 Four Weight

This rod has been tapered to .030 over final dimension. Time to clean up the strips, straighten again and then final taper and glue.




Thanks for looking.
