Thank you Bill.
Already found many interesting things in the library.
I am researching crackle, wanted to see if there is any similar product here in Brazil, I found something to varnish base, you tell me if it would be best for the rod.

Fabio,

You will find this site to be extremely helpful. Also, if you don't already have a copy, I would highly recommend the purchase of a book entitled "Advanced Custom Rod Building" by Dale P. Clemens. It is available from Mudhole Custom Tackle; but shipping to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil may be a little pricey. It became my Bible when I first started my business. Welcome aboard!

Hello Donald,
Thanks for the tip, I still have the book, but I will do everything possible to buy last year bought the visual wrap, excellent program, but as you said, the tax here in Brazil is very high, the price of the dollar here is $ 3 00, over 60% of imports, absurd ...
Hug.
