BassResource.com Advertiser FD. Posted July 11, 2015 BassResource.com Advertiser Posted July 11, 2015 and the experiment continues. You really have to stop soon. You are causing me to want to spend more money than I should. I had talked myself out of the need for a ban saw and lathe. Not so much anymore. Watching this thread unfold is like a fishing crack addiction... And I can't "Just say NO"... 2 Quote

I had talked myself out of the need for a ban saw and lathe. Not so much anymore. Watching this thread unfold is like a fishing crack addiction... And I can't "Just say NO"... Lathe first. There's a lot you can do with that before you need to get a bandsaw! I was doing elliptical inlays in cork with my miter saw for years. Biggest reason for the bandsaw was EVA. the miter saw didn't like the EVA. My first elliptical using miter saw. 1 Quote

Lucky Craft Man Posted July 25, 2015 Posted July 25, 2015 THAT IS INCREDIBLE! Nice shaping on the Full Wells grip. That reel seat looks so sharp! It will look even better with that Remix mounted to it. Quote
Super User S Hovanec Posted July 25, 2015 Author Super User Posted July 25, 2015 I made it a little bigger than the pattern. It just seemed too small. It feels good in hand. Quote
