Yes. it is excellent work, good to know there is a good rod builder nearby!

Impeccable work Mark, the patience required in some of those builds is just completely out of my realm of sanity!!!

Keep it up!!

Hi Mark, I assume you fixed the guide first with normal black thread and then covered it with the marbling? Looks bloody nice!!

Hi Kaspaas. yes in the last one was with black thread then pearl base coat with colour pigment red and white.

Usually will do thread colour of the marbling to give better tone

Hi DocPhil.

Yes and no. I taught myself via tutorials, Craig Niel aka. Enigma gave and still does give me allot of help and pointers. these days more on technical stuff. Allot of patience time and tons of mistakes
