Title: The Man Cave
Post by: Steve on March 23, 2014, 12:09:20 PM

You guys have seen the Office section of my basement where the big tank is at but I don't think I have ever shared pictures of the other area of the basement where I build custom fly rods. I decided to take this weekend and clean the shop top to bottom. Not only clean but rearrange things to make working more productive/easier, tossed some old worn out items like rugs that were covered with epoxy/finish/paint and replace them with new ones as well as adding more and better lighting.

Few pics of Outdoor Man-Cavetopia.

Steve, basement looks perfect. Checked your website, not much on it in terms of available rods for sale... Are you still building? If you are, shoot me a pm please...

Cheers,

Glen

Oh yeah building all the time, it's actually what I have been doing for my full time job the past 8-9 years now. Just can't keep rods in stock long enough to list on my site is all, which I guess is a good thing.

Thanks, I've actually had a few customers that have picked up rods try to buy that lamp from me. But I made that myself a few years back and never have been able to part with it.
