No, I have a wood engraver do that work. The equipment alone costs 10k.

Great Job- functional yet a really good looking piece, could become a family treasure with the flyrods.
Curious as to overalll dimensions and the size dowels you used?

Nice. Since I don’t fish I would probably use it for pool cues. :-)

Very nice! I think that would be a good first project for me, and something I can donate as a giveway to my FF club.

That’s a nice project. I have some friends trying to goad me into fly fishing. Seems like another expensive hobby. LOL…plus there’s all that fishing. I like the project.

Let’s go fishing! Great looking piece. Another project to put on my rapidly growing list, (along with a fly tying stand) As for the wood engraver, “Yes, honey, it was expensive… but look what it can do!”

excellent!

Tom.. I picked up my rod for $250 and a vice for about $50 I think. Then the flytying materials is really cheap because you use so little of anything.
There’s no fishing like flyfishing!
