[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 442993, member: 13702"] As far as rods go I got into building them for myself. The component parts aren't terribly expensive, and you can choose where you cut corners to save on costs so that you're cutting cosmetics and not performance. The tooling is quite simple, you can make a hand wrapping stand for yourself out of some scrap wood as I did for very little $$$ and come up with a stand for a drying motor - all in I probably have <$30 into the cost of tooling including the drying rack motor. It's really cool the first time you use one you've made and see how it feels compared to your setups prior. [/QUOTE]
