How-To Video: Making the Hand Crafted Bamboo Rod by Russ Gooding 5_bulb Review this video!

Lyle Hand spends his retirement is the cozy quarters of his bamboo fly rod shop. Videographer, producer, and fellow rodmaker Sid Strong gives us an intimate look at Mr. Hand’s shop and methods. From the bamboo culm to the finished bamboo fly rod, we see the methodical transformation from raw materials to meticulously crafted tool. If you’re new to bamboo rodmaking, this DVD is a great overview, and it’ll give you the foundation and motivation you need to get started. But, as with any master craftsman, Lyle Hand has devised a few ingenious methods of his own; even the most accomplished rodmakers will be captivated while learning new techniques.

I liked it. There were some aspects of bamboo fly rod making that I would have liked more detail on and some more detail on some of the tools Lyle used but overall, I found it helpful and informative. Thanks, and yes I would recommend this video.
