The best book I have is: The New Advanced Custom Rod Building by Dale P. Clemens.
It's not a very new book as it came out in 1987. It covers just about everything though.

You tube is a mine of information, you can actually see how it's done rather than read it.

Art Schecks book “fly rod building made easy“ is very good - focuses on single handed rods but principles are the same

tight lines
