[QUOTE="Mattman, post: 144462, member: 23"] It could be pretty difficult. You really want a matching taper. So, you blank is broken in a section that acutally goes inside the handle? Breaks low on the blank are easy to fix, but if it is in the telescoping section, and you want to keep the telescoping feature, you're pretty much out of luck. What brand rod is it? Its been a long time since I've built a telescoping rod. Most of my customers are really looking to cut weight and opt for single piece blanks. But, when I'm doing repairs and/or building my own ferrules, my rule of thumb is the two blanks should overlap 6 times the diameter. [/QUOTE]
