Default rods caps question
If the caps were removed from the rods but didn't be marked to the correspond rod, it this a problem?

Not a problem then, they can be matched back together since each rod will be cracked uniquely.

Yeah, every cap will only fit the right rod...just guess and check until you get them back together. When they make them, they are 1 piece and they etch a center line then snap them off at it...every one breaks uniquely.

I believe they score each 1 a little differently also at least on the small sides as that seems to be where the most difference is from 1 to another .
