There was also a nice video tour of Loomis, think it was done by TW, that shows the cutting, rolling, hot mandrels, etc. Cool stuff.

I always thought Louise was the hottest of the Mandrells.

This is some good info on prepreg materials and general rod manufacturing. It's British, so translation may be needed for some.

I believe that was a winter or two ago when TW and their sponsored Elite Pro Jared Lintner did a tour of Loomis' plant. Was pretty cool to see the whole process from beginning to end. If you break a Loomis' IT IS YOUR FAULT as I saw the contraption they use to test their rods and those suckers were nearly doubled in half before they gave.
