Today I decided to make a fishing rod in order to go fishing and catch fish !!! This rod is easy to manufacture. All materials can be found easily if you are in any village.
Materials:
1. Branch (I immediately took the whole tree).
2. Electrical tape.
3. Aluminum wire (preferably larger).
4. Tube (from any material with a diameter of about 10 mm) (I just took the old door handle).
Instruments:
1. Hacksaw
2. Ax
3. Knife
4. Scissors
5. Pencil and ruler
6. Vise
7. Pliers
8. Nippers.
Well, if you have everything, then you can start.
1.Step. First, as they found a suitable branch, it must be rid of knots and sanded.
2.Step. Then we align the ends of the branches with a hacksaw.
Let our fishing rod dry up for now, and for now we will start to make guides for fishing line.
3.Step. When you find a suitable tube, immediately insert it into the vise and start making guides.
First you need to slightly release the edge of the wire for the tube and then make two skeins in a circle of the tube. And so you need to do 6 pieces.
4.Step. After I made the blanks for the guides, now they need to be completed. (See photo).
When the branch is dry and all the guides are ready, we begin to collect the rod.
5.Step. I measured the distance for the handle so that it was convenient to hold the fishing rod (I got this distance about 80 cm), then we retreat from the line 40 cm and attach the first guide, then we attach the second also at a distance of 40 cm from the first and so on everyone else. I attached the guides to the electrical tape very tightly.
That's all the fishing rod is ready, now it remains only to attach a reel and go to catch the cabin !!!
