Custom Bamboo Rods ($3995) – Tom Morgan Rodsmiths
All TMR bamboo rods are built on the Morgan Hand Mill using Tom's tapers as the foundation. He believed in starting with the finest tip possible and having a smooth progressive taper for the full length of the rod. Our rods load deeply for increased feel and accuracy, but also recover quickly to provide plenty of power on longer casts.

Hollow fluting tools - The Bamboo Rod Room
2011-6-26 I use a Morgan Hand Mill and fluting cutters are one of the standard options for it.
