Tlap - "Supposed to be done". Nah, everyone does things their own way. Something like this will give you more ideas on how to figure it out for yourself, hopefully you'll pick up a couple of tips that will help you out, and I wouldn't be surprised if there was something you were doing that we can learn from.

I've spent a day at Rapt Tite's house, both of us showing each other how we do certain Rodbuilding functions. We do everything almost completely different, but we generally get to the same end result. One of the most noticeeable differences is putting inlays in guide wraps - he uses 2 rolls of masking tape, I use my 4 thumbs & 6 middle fingers, lol. Hopefully you'll come up in FEb & see what I'm talking about.
