I would like to try to my hand at building a rod or rods this winter and was wondering if there was a good book or other resource on this subject? Thanks Jason

+1 That's what I started with too. It's somewhat basic and gives you some great info on how and where to begin and what you'll need. After you're done with that one there's about 100 more books that range from very basic building to some pretty advanced thread art, but defintely start with Tom Kirkman's book. Here's a few links to enough literature to keep you busy for a while.

If you will go to my website, look on the Links page. At the top, there are links for Tom's book as well as a couple from Dale Clemens, that are classics.
Good luck......George
