Nice work Zip Tie Man!

Thanks Shoe !, I maybe should of used a black or graphite color blank for this color combo but what the hay right?

You never know until you try! Still, I think it looks great- I've just started to mess around with the marbling myself and it's definitely a little tricky- until you've tried it I think it's hard to appreciate good work. Thanks again for sharing!

Thanks again Shoe, Marbling is a little tricky at first but the results are one of a kind. I just ordered more stuff from Mudhole.com to build me a 7 foot E-Glass stand up spinning rod with Fuji alconite guides. I should have the stuff this week and will post pics of my build in stages of the transformation.
