This rod taught me alot over more of the other rods I have built. For one never use A metallic thread to do a spiral wrap with multiple strands you will wind up with a tangled pony tail. But A lays down nicely on the blank for first wrap and I like the C thread better than the D thread for wrapping guides. I haven't had a new rod guide slip yet. All in all it's good enough for me and a good investment with a profit.

Prefect for a spiral wrap. It will lays completely flat and straight for you when you rotate the rod by hand.
If you make it look like candy 🍬 it might get bit 😏

Because the googan that put his reel on top of my tackle box and then started bouncing his pin knife off the top of my tackle box finish, that's when I told him to move your stuff off the top of my tackle box and then the guy has the nerve to say you don't have to be a dick about it.
I took the high road and just said I'm not being a dick.
But seriously who wants a fk-ing patch job if your forced to sell something. I could give a sheee-it about scratches unless I have to sell something.

Looks Fancy! Congratulations on your finished build. When I hear of spiral wrap, I think of the guides that start up right, and spiral around to the bottom of the rod like a spinning reel. Your new build looks like a standard conventional wrap so not sure what you are referring to by spiral wrap?

I think most of my rods are wrapped in C thread, but D thread being a little thicker, is faster and easier to wrap so that's a good thing if one is going for functionality over looks.
