This is a Waara V block measuring tool for making six sided bamboo rods. Designed in Michigan by the late Bill Waara, this tools measures the individual triangular bamboo strips when making bamboo rods. A quick, repeatable and precision way to ensure all your strips are the same size and the correct size to give you the taper and action you need for your finished rod. Included with your tool is a v-block, mounting screws, precision calibration pin and specific instructions for both dial and digital callipers. This sale is for the v-block only and does not include the dial caliper shown in the photos. This is shown for demonstration purposes only. I have made this tool for many years and have sold hundreds to rod makers around the world.

I had the pleasure of meeting Bill Waara and own many of his innovative rod making tools and I benefitted greatly from his tutelage. He was an engineer and bamboo rod maker himself.

You can see this tool in action on my YouTube channel.  https://youtu.be/3yDaUsiXVqg
