Granger Champion Taper - Steve Stillabower


HI All,

Forget who wanted this, but here 'tis.  First time I've ever measured off a
rod, so be kind if I messed it up!  This is over varnish on a 1924-1934 era
9' 3/2 rod.  

         tip     mid      butt
0       top    fer       fer
5      .093   .203    .281
10    .117    .225    .311
15    .133   .237     .312
20    .147   .251     .324
25    .163   .260    .339 (.363@26, .394@27, .404@27.5)
30    .178   .262     cork
35    .184   .265     cork

Pretty dramatic swelled butt I think!  I would deduct .004 for the varnish.
The 35" measurement on the tip and mid was actually just above the ferrule
wrap, so call it 34 and change.  I like you guys, but I ain't gonna take
this baby apart to measure it
