I've got two on the bench and one down by the lathe getting fitted with flocked grips. I've got an 8'6" salmon blank with a fish pattern half done for a butt wrap, a tiger between the split (flocked) grips and no guides. Need to get it done soon - the snowbird that it's being built for will be returning north soon. Have a baitcaster for my son with dragon scales between the spits needing dragon scales in front of the fore grip (I mount the grips after the wrap is done) and guides. It too, must be done soon; the boat should be ready soon and the fluke are already in! The one in the basement is for me - for whenever I get to it. Rebuilds, let's not talk about rebuilds!
