Made a tripod rod rest
Here is my new tripod rod rest i made from oak, only 50 cm long and easy to take it with me when fishing.

Re: Made a tripod rod rest
That's a beautiful and useful thing Evert!
I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete.

Lovely finishing touches Evert!
