rod extention

Have any of you guys done a butt extension on your rods? I have a really nice ultralight rod that is 6'6 and i was thinking of stripping the cork tape and reel seat off and fitting an 18" length of rod up into it with a slow cure 2 part epoxy. Then doing a tuna cord wrap with a new reel seat. Wanna use it for ultralight surf perch fishing and an extra foot of rod would be great. What do you think?
