This was my first time at the ICRBE, I'm really glad I made the trip. I was impressed, learned a few new tricks, made some contacts, met some master builders, but most importantly I made a few new friends and which I hope to see again next year.

I have 4 jigs, a 12, a 16, a slicer, and a diagonal cut. They call it a diamond wedge (mhcj4) which I bought from mudhole, I called them to see if they had any videos, but no luck. I'd like to how to use it and ehat its capable of. If all else fails, I will buy the cheapest cork rings I can find and practice until I master it. Because winners never quit and quitters never win.

I'm getting ready to start a build featuring a nfl team, I'm having a difficult time finding team decals that I can epoxy over. Would anyone know where I can find a solution? Thanks in advance!

I really enjoy these blanks, especially the xc blanks. Great action, great feel, and will perform to task at hand. I have 731 that I use for flounder and sea bass, 732 that I use for stripe bass and tautog (blackfish), I'm getting ready to build on a 802 blank. Really nice blank. I don't fly fish but I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

From what I gather, most builds will be saltwater boat, some surf fishing, my best is to use epoxy, correct?
