Builders in MT?

Hi All,
Currently I'm living in Maine and finishing up graduate school. However, I'll be moving back out to Montana in December and will be visiting my fiancee in Helena in August and September. I was just curious if there are builders in the Helena/Missoula area that would like to sit down and talk rods for an afternoon while she's at work. I'm relatively new at building and would love to see other folks work and pick anyone's mind. Thanks,
Matt

Matt, I live in Dillon and sell some rods through my business; Big Hole Custom Rod Crafting. If it would happen to work out It would be fun to set and talk rods and building.

Matt,
I live in Helena and build a few rods. You can email me at stn.grace@gmail.com when you are headed out this direction. I build rods of most any description on an occasional basis.

Thanks Douglas and Stan,
I'll only be in MT for a short time this summer and fall. I'd like to meet with you both, but I won't have time to get down to Dillon until later in the winter or next summer. I'll let you know if I can get the time to head down that way.
Thanks again,
Matt
