I'm lucky to have three rodbuilding vendors within 20 minutes of my home. To get started it really helps to be able to visit a vendor and see what you need vs. what you think you need. Lance at Swampland in Houma is a great guy and would be able to get you going. |

After spending time with lance and at FTU in Houston, I couldn't see myself ordering all the components online - that's too much of a guessing game before knowing exactly where the components will line up on the blank, and which blank you are using along with OD dims at those points along the blank. A fit up on site by an experienced builder is priceless for a beginner... |

Just picked up materials for 2 more, I've only done the one to date.
Haven't hit Houma in a bit, but have been in Houston so I got everything at FTU. Got some cork split grips with darker cork trim on them, can't wait to get that one together. |
