"Hand a person a custom made rod," says expert rod maker Dale P.Clemens, "and in almost every instance one of the first things he looksat is the decorative thread work," because a handsome rod is moredesirable to own and fish. Clemens guides his readers through theorganizational process of threading, illustrates the uses of patternsand replicas, explains how to wrap and weave, and gives his personaltips on how to make every rod "a never ending kaleidoscope of form,shape and color." Offering a sound introduction to the essentials ofthread work on round surfaces and more than one hundred rod artpatterns suitable for both advanced hobbyists and professionals, Custom Rod Thread Art is the authoritative work on the subject. |

 | Gift for my husband Aug 5, 2008 |
| My husband loves this book. It's informative and useful. He's already put a few applications he learned from this book to use. | | |  | very advanced Jul 30, 2008 |
| This book is NOT for the average joe who wants to wrap one of his favorite rods with a custom butt wrap! If you are a novice in the field of rod wrapping this book will be a long way over your head, I know it was over mine. Mr. Clements and his buddies have worked out a list of the patterns and all of the names and sequence of each different wrap, then he assumes that you should already know all the terms he applies to the instructions. Also there are NO COLOR pictures in this book, the only color is used on the front and back covers and of course a color photo of Mr. Clements. All the drawings seem to be hand done and are in black and various shades of gray. | | | | GREAT! Dec 28, 2004 |
| This book is great. It has a lot of information other books of its kind simply ignore. There is also another book called Advanced Custom Rod Building, it is also extremely helpful and detailed. They go hand in hand. The Advanced book, has illustrations and takes you step by step. Really a great book to look into. | | | | The most complete book on this subject I have seen Apr 17, 1999 |
| As an Amature rod builder I was looking for somthing different to distinguish my work. This book taught me how to do some of the most difficult wraps. | | | | The only book of it's kind on decorative thread wraps Mar 20, 1999 |
| Clemens' third book covers all aspects of custom thread work. Starting with some general information on layout and a glossary of wrapping terms, it moves on to over 100 patterns for butt wraps developed by rod builders all over the world. The book also contains a section on weaving thread, with some patterns and information on how to develop your own designs. A word of warning, however. This is not a step by step beginner book. I would recommend reading and doing some of the more involved butt wraps in Clemens' Advanced Custom Rod Building before moving on to Custom Rod Thread Art. | | | Write your own review about Custom Rod Thread Art
