thanks for this great video using common electrical tape.works for me.
do you have a video of putting on small single foot guides, as lots of the newer rods for braid line tend to use these? same technique but smaller tape?
thanks

How about amalgamating tape..on larger rings...might be a bit bulky

Tidy work. Iv'e had it on my mind for a while to experiment with the size and location of the first butt ring on an
old rod so the method just using tape would be ideal .
