Marbling with CRB pigment on custom fishing rod

[@ОлегТокарев-е4ю]

*Packaging was awesome. **enjoyable.fishing** recommend Tube is tough and kept the rod very safe. Rods gorgeous! Can’t wait to use it this spring.*

I wouldn't buy that paint from the major businesses I would just go to Walmart buy it there it's only 50 cents it's still the same thing the major businesses Mark up the prices ten times more a couple announces your paying 5 6 7 dollars for little ounces not worth it

Excellent video! Thank you so much! You remind me of Bob Ross - same mannerism and very easy to follow.

[@EagleEyeOutdoorsEEO]

Dixie Rods Thanks for the feedback! I’m glad I can help out. I’ll be doing a video soon with a 2 layer marble that I’ve been playing with!

Have you ever just added mica pigments to a little bit of epoxy instead of using the little jars or pigment? 100's more colors out there. Just curious if that would work. It works for me when I make pen blanks for turning. Looking at getting into this

[@EagleEyeOutdoorsEEO]

J M thanks for the info! I have not tried that but will look into it. I don’t think you will be disappointed if you get into this!

[@rubenortega7652]

What kind of pigment are you using

[@tomginther8230]

would you be able to use this technique on wood?

[@Desert_Operator_5.56]

What was the metal object that you pulled out of the epoxy before you separated it?

[@EagleEyeOutdoorsEEO]

It’s a cylinder weight that comes with mixer. This will help mix the epoxy and help minimize bubbles.

[@dannycabrera9570]

Cool video, but I have a Phoenix rod but it’s not a blank, would it still be possible to do it ? Please let me know

[@EagleEyeOutdoorsEEO]

Danny Cabrera you can do this technique on any rod or blank. All you need is a way to support the rod and able to rotate. I hope this helps and thanks for watching.

[@bigone231]

Could I do this to an already finished rod or would I have to sand down any finish that's already there? I have a split grip sorta like that one I would like to do this or a wrap with.

[@EagleEyeOutdoorsEEO]

This is a great way to freshen up an old rod or even a new one you just bought. Either way you want to go will be obtainable. The main thing to keep in mind is you need to make sure it’s clean. I use denatured alcohol which can be purchased at any hardware store.

[@thankfullife7968]

hes always running out of denatured alcohol bc he doesnt close the lid and it evaporates away haha appreciate the video EEO

Awsome job thanks for sharing I just started into rod building myself got the ice rod starter package it’s a challenge at first but I think I’m gonna stick with it

[@EagleEyeOutdoorsEEO]

sarge rock stick it out, you won’t regret it!! Keep it enjoyable and good luck!!!

[@jjourdan8014]

Is the finish smooth? Or rough because of using the toothpick?

[@EagleEyeOutdoorsEEO]

It’s a smooth finish since the epoxy is self leveling. If you play with it to long and over work the epoxy allowing it to thicken, you might start running into issues.

[@coloradodirtbike5930]

Is that thin set or thick set epoxy?

[@EagleEyeOutdoorsEEO]

Cane Corso I used ProKote on that one and it’s more of a medium. I have done with thin as well depending how much movement I want.

[@coloradodirtbike5930]

@@EagleEyeOutdoorsEEO thanks, the rod looks great. Just played around with some marbling for the first time today, I found that I could leave the epoxy to tack up a little (thicken) and achieve different affects, as when I did it with more viscosity.

[@RalphBarton-fishing]

Cool. Video. Thanks for sharing

[@EagleEyeOutdoorsEEO]

Ralph Barton Thanks!

[@syraniela]

A very good example of "stupid anglers! "
