I'll add to that.

Roger worked up a custom DC power supply, motor, and hand and foot controller for me a while back. [rodbuilding.org] He made me some custom pulleys to go with it. Later, when I decided to change plans and go with a semi-custom large-bore headstock for my new wrapper, he came up with a new pulley design to work with the new headstock.

Roger is a true craftsman and engineer. Working with him through countless e-mails to turn my personal desires into the wrapper of my dreams was an absolute pleasure.

Soon, I hope to have my remodeling complete and get this all set up and working. Roger gave me exactly what I was looking in a power wrapper - something customized to meet my needs - at 1/2 the price and 1/10 the time of me trying to do it myself, not to mention it works the first time.

I'd like to nominate Roger for one of those commercials, you know, like power drum dryer $125, power wrapper controller $150, Roger Wilson, priceless. Thanks Roger!

Roger sent me some longer nuts for an Aero comfort seat and refused to take any payment. I needed one and got three!! Postage from the States to Oz isn't cheap.
Definitely a good guy.

I Once sent Roger an e-mail asking about his past. I surely thought he was a retired teacher as he is always eager to teach all he knows on this forum, I was wrong,
He isn`t, but he is.
