Mike should I post questions here about my layout? Or you want it in a pm?

My spool is better big in diameter, but my numbers still look right, in theory, at work now so haven't had the opportunity to check it against the blank.

heres a few pics from the class, unless you were there, there tough to explain.

first one is mike using two pairs of glasses and his special glasses to fix a trim band taper

second pic is mike helping set up the guide layout.

as you can tell from the pics, mike works very clean and loves fruit bars

learned a lot in week 3, left with a lot of numbers floating in my head, luckily i took really good notes. made it real easy to undertsand once i started my own rod.
