Making Snake Guides by Lee Gomolchak

Lee Gomolchak of Gray Hackle Rods made a presentation at the Colorado Rodmakers Reunion about making snake guides.  He agreed to let us share his handout here on the SRG blog.  The handout is very detailed regarding the dimensions of the snake guides and the twisting tool.  He will be doing this presentation at SRG 2015.  Here's the link.  It's also listed in the downloads section of this blog.
