Completely built by my 8 yr old(barely)grsndson. He did EVERYTHING, including glueing/sanding grip. All I did was guide placement.

Mike you should be very proud of your grandson for his acomplishment here. Very nicely done grips here. Well, maybe I should show him how to do a closed wrap.

The term "Rod Bond" takes on added meaning here Mike. Great job both of you! Can't wait 'till my G-babies get a little older to try this.
