I used to fish plastic, but now I select a rod for the feel it provides as well as the beauty. In my opinion ,as well as in the opinion of my customers, the feel of a well made bamboo rod can't be matched

I don't have 2-2500 $ so I'll stick to my Fenwick.

The bamboo rod does not cost that much. The fellow asked how much would it cost to buy the equipment to make them. Never the less, the rods cost much more than a fenwick with good reason.

You can get going if you purchase from 2k to 2.5 k worth of tools. The steel form is about $800.00.

You could build a 2 strip quad (poor mans quad) for around 100, all you need is the bamboo a flat surface and a plane.
