My name is Marv Loopstra, live in the St. Louis area and I am so new at this that I am still trying to figure it all out and collect my equipment.  I have purchased stuff I don't need and am lacking stuff that I do need :-)

Met several people at SRG in Arkansas and was lucky enough to be able to attend the class put on by Tony Spezio (btw Tony, just about ready to dip the segments on the SRG rod, had to build some tooling and wait for other purchased tooling which caused my delay).

I find all of it very interesting and fun but find my most difficult part is making good quality, even length wraps.

Glad you folks are here!
