>>2422352There's a lot to know about rod building, and most of it comes from experience and practice
Dec wrap stuff is not for most folks, unless you don't mind sitting for hours staring at thread focusing
If you've got specific questions I'm happy to answer but it's hard to just give all the info
>>2422523Hard to say. Most of what I've built so far has been for myself and or for friends so I've kept cost low
Rod building isnt cheap, between components and shipping of stuff
So I try to not charge a ton for my time (that being said I've got a bit of a back order on rods now so times at more of a premium)
At this time
Completely outside of materials cost, shipping etc, I might charge 150+
The more complicated the build is the more I'd have to charge
Something basic in a single color with no artwork won't be much
Something that I spend 10 hours on the threadwork alone will be a fair bit more
If anyone is actually interested in a rod I'm happy to drop outside contact info and price a build out for someone
