old rods

#1 Post by weedave »

hi lads,

i have a mk1 century cccld blank - it had 8inches snapped of the tip during a fight with some weed and boulders

i had planned on rebuilding it myself for the craic but havent managed to find the time to do so - my question is what can i do with this blank now. the bit detection wasnt the best before it had no tip so i get the impression it'll be a lifeless pole now.

uptider maybe?

any input would be great.
