Raymond i guess i don't know how to get my email address to show but my email is kbalcombe@hotmail.com and i would apprecitate any and all help. LOL i guess Bob did not understand why i bought the last rod turner and why i shop for blanks and thread and why i draw pictures and like to play with the grid papers and stand over his shoulder and point out anything i can think of lol umm maybe now he knows why i always buy two of everything when it comes to rodbuilding. Kerry Hansen has been a wonderful friend and help explain lots to me on art work and has really been an insperation to be as well as that little husband of mine whom who thinks i am a pain in the butt but i admire him any ways.

Bob,
I am not sure that I believe that Karen is your spell checker. The way you spell I think that it would take at least 3 or 4 people to correct your spelling.

Folks,
It's fine to welcome Karen to the board, but let's not use this forum as a chatroom to discuss Bob's spelling habits. There's already 12 posts in this thread, 7 of which are not related to the subject this board was intended for. Please keep your posts related to the subject of rodbuilding.
