Does anyone know where I can take a peak at rod building equipment around the San Antonio area?

Very few places stock much in the way of actual rod building equipment, at least if you're talking about lathes, wrappers, dryers, etc.

Best place to go to see all that there is----is the EXPO at High Point. May need a little more than a bicycle, but the trip will be worth it.

Bill Jones - Roger's Micro Custom Rod - Note the object in the upper right of the decal - When he wants to clear his mind he takes a ride - his trips on the two wheel thing even kept him from making a trip to High Point! When the picture opens click on it to enlarge - done on the white media from Swampland. If you ride a bike to his office you may get a discount.

The decal background features Clydes authentic instant "A Baloney"!

Ernest, I know 2 SA builders...Edward Torres( you could look him up on here) and David Mata (Bimini Custom Rods). They may be willing to show you their rodbuilding setups.
