Rod Building Class Help - need Dryers and Wrappers
Posted by: Greg Vogel (---.135.80.14.montanasat.net)

Good Morning,

I have been recruited to give a beginning rod builder class during a trip to Nashville next month. Looks like I am going to be short drying motors and
wrappers for the class. If any rod builders in the general area would be willing to donate some for the weekend of June 6/7 there would be much rejoicing.
I have done a few classes up here so have enough for dozen or so people but it looks like about 20 want to be part of this. So am short equipment for 6-8.
We are going to be doing light spin rods.

The class is sponsored by a mens' group from 1st Baptist Church in Nashville and there will be kids, older folks, and some of the men from the group participating.
Some of the guys come up to fish with me every year here in Montana. They have been after me for a few years to do this.

Thanks for any help with this and if anyone has any ideas let me know.

Greg

Hi Greg,

Welcome to the world of rod building education! Thanks for spreading the word about rod building. Rounding up enough tools and equipment to teach classes is always a tough proposition. We know, we teach classes around the USA and in hundreds of educational schools (high school & trade schools) around the world. Read more about out Education Program at [www.mudhole.com]

At Mud Hole Custom Tackle we actually set up an equipment loaner program for that purpose some time ago. But with the new CRB Rod Drying System (RDS) and Hand Wrapping System (HWS) we have an economical alternative for classes that doesn’t require expensive shipping.

Please drop Todd Vivian an email at todd@mudhole.com and ask if our education program would work for you and your students. BTW – Todd is actually in Boston, MA this weekend teaching a class, so he’ll get back to you early next week when he returns.

Thanks and keep up the great work your doing.

Regards.

Good job, Greg. Don't let Chuck [www.decalconnection.com] Brown lead you astray while in Nashville.
