Does anyone roll their own?

I like to mix a rolly in now and then, but I like operating undercover. Hard with the littles around

Same here these days.

Wait. You can roll your own fishing rod?

And this thread makes me wonder if there's always been a roach clip hidden in the RCTalk logo between the C and T. It would seem we have more in common than playing with cars.

Never had a roach clip. After the inhaled lit roach the third or 4th time I learned how to hold it and dont suck air like a blown 572.

I had a wood lathe and was making them for a bit...everything is easier to sell if you use it yourself...

You can try to rely on your customers for input on improvements for next year's model but there is nothing like a personal R&D test to work out the kinks.

So things started moving in the “rod shop” today. Step one- close up the 3d print shop . Cleaned off the print bench, packed the printed and stuff away.

after much internal debate, I’ve decided to build my own wrapping station.

Let’s see what happens

The track is ready to be stained. My woodworking skills are amateur at best .

At this point I need to run and grab a few things from Lowe’s, and order a few more things.

As far as I’ll get today. Need to build the thread carriage next.

Got to get a drying motor ordered along with some other supplies and such.
