Andrew J. Davis Website

Post by Mark »

Forum member 'James' is a split cane rod maker and restorer, please take a look at his own website below.

http://www.ajdsplitcanerods.com

The following words are taken from his website:

"I think it was in 1988 when my work colleague, who knew I was an avid angler and keen on whipping and repairing old rods, gifted me an old paperback book 'Rod Building for Amateurs' by Richard Walker. This was the catalyst which sparked my interest in split cane rods."

Lovely stuff, but your restoration work takes some beating Wal....that's why we call you Dr Cane!

The quality has to be seen to be believed. And Andrew is such a nice guy who listens to your requirements and gives regular updates as the build progresses.. true traditional values and master craftsmanship. :Hat:

The new website looks great!

Hopefully Andrew has already made a start on my MKIV :Wink:

I can't wait, but by the looks of things I will be ordering a Craftversa to go with it!
