I’m looking into trying to learn to wrap rods. I’ve looked at get bit and a few other videos to self teach. Can anyone recommend any other videos or materials to study before I try my fist build. Also, any needed tools that you think may help the process. Thanks in advance!

I made a fly rod a hundred years ago using a rod building jig that I made. I bought all my rod components from Anglers Inn back in the day.
I'm sure it would work just fine. It's yours if you want it, I will never use it again.

Mudhole has some really nice starter kits that have everything you need to get started, with or without a a rod kit, I bought a rod kit with all the tools when I got started, plus they have some great tutorial videos on rod building.

go look at the stuff that mudhole has, they have the best rods and the best prices. look at the MHX blanks, they are super nice rods.
I have all the stuff to build any rod you would like. I have built over a hundred rods form ice rods to ocean rods for salmon.
not sure if I can help you very much, because I live in CO. now, you can send me a message any time.
