I'm told that the new CDs will be here on Friday. It will be Monday and Tuesday before they begin shipping. Those of you who have already ordered should see your copy towards the end of next week.

I mistakenly left off a few of the included articles and have added them below. This thing ended up pushing out to over 80 pages and there was so much in it that I just overlooked a few of the articles.

.....................

RodMaker Magazine Special Edition CD #2, will be delivered to me this coming Friday. It deals with building specific rod types including, but not limited to:

Ultra-Light Rods
Stand-Up Rods
Two Handed Rods
Musky Rods
Great Lakes Trolling Rods
Bass Revolver Rods
No-Foregrip Rods
Live Bait Rods
Surf Rods
River Bass Rods
Spiral Wrapped Rods
Making Wooden Rods
New Guide Concept Spinning Rods
Vibronics Rods
Sensi-Touch Custom Rods
Split Grip Rods
And Assorted/Related Articles On Task Specific Construction.

It ended up being a much larger volume than I had originally intended, consisting of over 80 pages total. There are 16 chapters in all.

I am having 250 copies produced. They will be offered here first and are available by mail order only for the time being. I will list them on the website in about 2 weeks once I see how many are left. In the meantime, they are $29.95 ppd, by check or money order to RodMaker, PO Box 1322, High Point, NC 27261. I will accept PayPal orders (remit to [email protected]) but please remember to include your address and specify that you want Special Edition #2 in the comments box. I expect to start shipping this edition within 10 days, or less.

And yes, I'll toss in one of the International Custom Rod Building Symbols with each order. I know somebody will ask.

Hi Tom,

I was just wondering if there would be any chance that I could get one of these CD’s sent to Australia? I would be more then happy to pay for the extra postage of course.

Cheers mate

Postage isn't the problem - I don't have anyone to send to the post office to fill out the postage forms and stand in line waiting to mail it. I certainly can't take an hour out of my day to do it. Sorry.

Just a thought, contact Ian Miller at ian@millerods.com and see if he'll buy a few to distribute there. I send his magazines to a guy here in the US who then reships them to Australia.

Hi Heath,

Thanks so much for the offer mate. I have emailed Ian Miller but I haven't heard back yet so, if possible, I might go ahead and take you up on your offer. Obviously this depends on availability. If you would like to email me so that we can organise things my email address is blair.chilton@gmail.com.
Thanks again for the offer, I really appreciate it. I will keep an eye out for any word from Tom about availability and look forward to hearing from you.

Cheers mate
