Attention Rod Builders
Submitted by Goodz on Sun, 2012-03-04 14:39
So I have access to a Jigging Master Powerspell 400 that's been snapped and was wondering if the guides and reel seat can be used in building a new rod? It's only been used a few times. How much would that save on costs of a rod build?
Anyone out there keen to build me a PE6-8 jig spin using the guides and stuff off the JM rod?
Cheers,
Ben.

Reuse the guides for sure,
Reuse the guides for sure, forget the reel seat, you won't ever get it back off with a half-decent glue job.

It's possible to drill it
It's possible to drill it out and sand it from the inside but it's bitch to do to save 20 bucks

Yeh,
dont forget the tip can be used and the gimble as well. So basically you would need to buy a blank, reel seat and grips and thats it.
Give us a yell, I will build it for you!!
FEEEISH ONNN!!!
