Matt Leiderman of Leiderman Rods is a school teacher and if you follow along with him on social media, he's spent his summer at the family lake house, on a quickie road trip to Colorado and of course, in the rod shop working on a few builds. He'll be back in the classroom soon enough but until then he's going to keep tinkering away on building a few more fly rods.
The other day Matt posted a few step by step images of how he creates custom bamboo reel seats and I thought the process was worthy of sharing, especially since it really gives you the understanding of the immense amount of work that goes into each of these reel seats. The other side of this is that Matt started off with two stacked bamboo reel seats in the works and ended up with just one in the end as there was an explosion during mortising.
