I'm thinking about getting it building my own rods. Not because of the cost, but more for the satisfaction of using stuff you built your self. I'm taking a class though community ed. next week. On sunday I stopped at Thorne Bros. and basically got a class there too. Any help would be great. Would anyone recondmend buying the power wrappers first or going the hand wrap route first? Also if I do invest money in buying the good equipment first, after I get the skills needed down, is there a market out there for hand built rods? My thinking is recouping my investment in equipment.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
