Not sure if this post belongs here. If not, my apologies and please let me know where this post should go.
I see Orvis has three current offerings in bamboo. The 1856 (hollow construction?), the Penn's Creek, and the Adirondack. Has anyone here seen a stress graph of any of those three, or maybe dimensions from which a stress graph could be constructed via Hexrod? I would love to see those graphs.

#2If you read the forum rules you would understand that sharing tapers of makers still in business is a no-no. Think about how you might feel if you spent years developing rod tapers and then somebody mics a rod and shares it with the entire planet on the internet. It just isn't right. I know you probably had good intentions - consider this a learning opportunity.

#3I see, and thanks for clarifying. I didn't mean to offend. As you write, all it takes is a micrometer to determine the taper of a rod, so I didn't think something so easy to determine might be considered off limits. I stand corrected.

#4Well said and zero offense. The bamboo game has many facets it takes a while to figure them out.
