And sanding I vacuumed up the mess before applying sealer.
One time with the filler got er done

Destroy my rubber finish ring at the end there is nothing I could replace it with.
Happy how it came out.

Almost down to the blank
If you get back 5ft you can't even see the wood filler.
It looks better than these pictures show. They don't do it justice

At bottom of cork, but I forgot to put it on before the gimbal knob butt.
I still might try but don't think the shrink tubing will shrink that small on the blank.

You only need one coat of u-40 cork sealer.

Holding the micro guides and then slide it up on to the blank, under the line. At your China mark. Give it a few wraps to hold it in
place.
Adjust straight 💯 with your tip and reel seat.
And finish wrapping
