Re: Mk IV Carp project
Great job! If my restoration of my battered B. James MKIV carp is half as good I'll be well pleased!

Well done AC, I am very envious of your ownership of that rod and your restoration skills are to be admired and congratulated on. Brilliant work and some day I shall have a MK IV myself.....One day Thomas, one day. Reedling.

Re: Mk IV Carp project
Excellent - cannot beat bringing a fine rod back into service and the workmanship looks absolutely splendid. If you get as much pleasure out of using it as I do mine then it will soon reach the esteemed status in your rod collection of your Harvey Torbett rod - indeed that high!!

Re: Mk IV Carp project
Lovely stuff Mal. I'm so tempted to give my pair a good going over, but right now I'm still a little scared of ruining them. One day maybe.
