Bob is only there on Sundays right now. try calling Sunday am and leave a message.

He is slow in winter. Don't worry he won't forget and he does GREAT work.

Good luck with him, he does do amazing work.

But doesn't return calls or emails, I tried to have him build a few rods for me with no response.

Tried again this year, no response again
