Getting ready to build my first rod and trying to do it as cheaply as possible, at least the first time around... can you guys suggest some type of item Id have around the house that would suffice as a " burnishing tool " ?? ( I was thinking about the back side of a plastic spoon ) I know I know please don't bust my chops... Also I cant seem to find info about the working time of the flex-coat wrap epoxy,,, once properly mixed and put on a piece of alum foil how long do I have before it starts to go off??? Any and all tips or suggestions are greatly appreciated... Mychael
