I'm a fairly new to rod building, and I made a mistake.
I had my handle already finished when I realized I put the real seat ring on backwards on an uplocking real seat. Is there any way to "unbond" the epoxy to take part of the handle apart to fix it? I appreciate any help you can give me. |

Thanks Kevin,
I've built 5 rods now and have always been so careful not to do something stupid like that. I felt like such an idiot. I appreciate your help. Justin Kevin Vang wrote: In article .com, says...

Kevin who feels as though he has already had this feeling of deja vu once before |
