The contents of the box leave nothing to be desired; everything is included to build a truly unique rod. We bought three kits, the rods are almost finished, and we’ll send you photos once we’ve completed everything. Several people have inspected the kits and were all impressed, so we’ll definitely be ordering more. This project is really fun! Best regards, Mario from Switzerland
