• Fly Angler's Online Rod Menu - pointers to all the Fly Anglers Online articles, including Spey Rods, Custom Grips, Rod Repair and more.
  
  
• Building Your First Fly Rod by Bob Widgren - from Flyfishermen.com. A shorter, more condensed version that will give you a good idea what to expect.
  
  
• RodBuilding.org's Library - pointers to various articles on the topic!
  
  
• Fly Rod Guide Placement Calculator - an alternate to the charts, utilizing the Wayne Cattanach Formula

Rod Building Discussion Forums

• RodBuilding.org - hands down one of the best forums around.
  
  
• RodBuildingForum.com - OK, that's pretty straightforward!
  
  
• Global Fisher's Rod Buildling Forum - I love Geoff's site and really should spend more time on it.
  
  
• Custom Rod Builders Guild Information Exchange - I must admit even though being a member I'm not that familiar with it!
  
  
• Fly Anglers Online Cane & Graphite Forum - another one I'm not that familiar with.
