Ray Jorgensen "How to" Video Coming Soon!

You can stop beating yourself in the head and screaming "How did he do that?" to the computer screen. Due to popular demand, RJ is releasing a video to show us neophites how to make the gorgeous grips that flow out of his workshop like "melted buttah". This limited edition VHS/DVD will take you on an indepth journey through the techniques, methods, and special tricks used to create some of the most outstanding reelseats, grips, and fighting butt's the rod building community has the pleasure of viewing. Sure, you'll never been as good at it as Ray, but who actually believes they could be!?

Ok, ok...this press release is fake, but it doesn't hurt to daydream about it. It is much less painful than my usual leaning forward, fingers interlaced in my hair tugging uncomfortably, and the yelling at the computer "how the H E double hockey stick does he do that?"

How about it Mr Jorgensen....when is the video set to release?

Ray already showed exactly how to do it in his article and photos in RodMaker last year. A video would also be great of course.

I am sure the first ones Ray made were not that good. If you have the money for the cutting tools and the room ? Go for it Like wine, better with age

Your stuff is beautiful Ray. I just wish I had the room for the tools to try to do it.
