  1. It works, a guy demoed it on my motor where it had deposits built up and he just sprayed it on let set for a few and wiped it off.
  2. We getting more rain right now and tomorrow also. Thanks for the report..
  3. I made a mistake and turn my rod drier off as i thought my epoxy had dried enough and i had to leave and when i came back i have little dribbles on my thread areas, guess it wasn't as dry as i thought.
  4. I don't care for split grips either.... now trying to figure out what i want to build next, looking at ST. croix kits.
  5. Be the last year i buy a fishing license.
  6. The thread darkened up after the color preserver and the epoxy and i need to be a little more consistent on my wrappings also. Thank you..

  9. I'm making head way as i have 4 eyes left to put on and then epoxy, i watched several videos and even tried watching the rod building video that came with kit but the volume is so low on CD i can't hear anything and all's i see is 2 guy's flapping the gums as they are doing stuff. Biggest issue i have had so far is getting the thread started short fat fingers and thread don't get along....lol

  16. Seeing an ad for Dodge trucks is not going to make me go out and buy one, since i don't care for Dodge. I don't make cookies so even a fish shaped cookie cutter is out of the question.

  19. Most of the newer on board chargers will charge either AGM or regular batteries but will not charge lithium batteries. Im using 2 group 31 batteries for trolling motor and group 27 cranking battery for outboard. Interesting on the wheel chair batteries....how big of a trolling motor you have? and i guess you run all day on them?
