Very nice job.[cool] [signature] Re: [tubeN2] Cody's B-day Rod - utwalleye - 06-05-2007 Thanks, I offered to do a wrap for TD but he said he always takes differant rods (no favorite) when he goes out. [signature] Re: [utwalleye] Cody's B-day Rod - tlspyder13 - 06-07-2007 That is a nice rod. Chuck I'll say again what I said at the class. If that is a simple wrap my hat is off to you and people who do the complex ones. Let's see. Twelve hours for Chuck, twelve years for me. Sounds about right. Thanks again for doing the demo. Very informative. [signature] Re: [tlspyder13] Cody's B-day Rod - utwalleye - 06-07-2007 thanks Richard, you have to remember that the 12 hours was streched out a few months. I worked on it off and on. after you put on about 20 to 30 threads thats about enough for a while. when you going to build one ?? cabelas had a few nice blanks for 10.99, thats a pretty good deal. later chuck [signature] Re: [utwalleye] Cody's B-day Rod - petty4life - 06-07-2007 nice work chuck...
