Its better to sit in a boat and think about God, than to sit in a church and think about fishing.

Nice!

Heat the tops of each rod tube with a propane torch. When they start to get "soft"  push a funnel into the tube to get a flare at the top of the tube.  Once it cools, sand the edges with some 400 grit.

No need for padding the tops now and they look just as good as store bought... t^

Looks good.. You could also buy heater hose from the auto part store and cut it in section for the tops..
My Biggest worry is that when I'm dead and gone, my wife will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it.
