If you thought the Century 1265 was a to light in action you may find the 1267 to be perfect. Rated at 2-5 its a 3 oz wonder rod. No kidding.

I just did some research on Fiberstar. They are made in Pennsylvania, but the blacks are made in Wooldand, Washington state....coincidentally, the same town as Lamiglas. Maybe they are from the same factory??? Seems strange to me.

There are 8 graphite rollers in Woodland alone both of the Loomis's and Lamiglas are the most popular. My blanks are made under a private label contract deal for me.

No - talk here - not over there

BTW - Welcome to S-B - good to see another local US blank (even if made under a private label exclusive contract )

Thanks John, The Private label contract is kind of the same as what Ryan with Century has or Rich from CTS . They are US distributers and use the companies name on the product.

My product is USA made so I can't use the companies name that makes the blanks since we are both in the USA. That and I am a manufactuer so I have my own name and are not affiliated at all with the the blank company. I could take my designs and go to any other company and have them made.

My designs are my designs. Other companies can't have them made for them so it's called Private Label contract. It's an OEM kind of deal!! So when the time comes I can manufactuer my own blanks in my own factory and not worry about owning the designs.
