Hey guys I took another try at marbling, redid an old Quantum Rod.
Modified Butt extended 6"
Chopped tip ( Broken ) 6"

Stripped an re wrapped the rod then marble finished it. Gets easier every try

Thanks for looking, Richie

Nice work Tropics I like it around the guides and above the butt section I like some of the blank showing between the marbleing IMO

vpass that is done with paint pigments mixed, with the epoxy. Mudhole has a video on their page. I used a different pigment then what they did. There are a few ways from what I have been playing with, doing a base color letting it dry. Then applying a clear coat and using your marbling colors to flow around the base. I am looking at using a thinner build epoxy.

redid my Fluke Bucktail Spinning rod last night will post pic later.

Thanks for looking..
