Project Pike/Fly Rod - Part #1

I'm building a Bloke XGnP 9ft 9wt pike/fly rod but I've never even used a fly rod before!!
In this first part of a new rod build series we discuss the special tools needed to build the rod and make them.

CORK CLAMP - Easy to make cork clamp.
ROD LATHE - A drill powered lathe for turning cork rod handles.
ROD WRAPPER - Fully adjustable rod wrapper with a multi thread carriage.
ROD DRIER - A super simple electric rod drier/turner.
Actual dimensions for the special tools featured here doesn't really matter so please don't get hung up on measurements, build them at the size that suits you.
Parts needed:
CORK CLAMP - 2 bits of stout wood, 2 lengths of thread-bar, wing nuts & washers. 6mm Aluminium rod for the cork mandrel.
LATHE - Cheap drill and 2 x bearings (17mm OD & 6mm ID)
WRAPPER - Short bit of springy wire, 3 x carriage bolts, 2 short bits of 6mm thread-bar, 12 x penny washers, wing nuts and 4 small springs.
ROD DRIER - Microwave turntable motor, flex cable with switch and plug, 32mm pipe plug and a few small nuts & bolts.
