which ones?  I made some, other decals I have them made on a local "decal/tees printer store" and few others I bought them already made.

the ones from the last fishing rod I just posted with USA flags/stars/stripes/etc, I found a bunch of those decals on "michael's" craft store

nothing "big" lately just some restoring jobs but at least they keep me busy

my last jobs are restoring 2 Shimano terez rods, there were some broken guides but mostly because almost every guide showed a bad case of corrosion on the feet of the guide which is pretty normal on the terez rods.
so, even when the owner wanted to have them rebuilt to look as they were before I recommended him to use a dark color on the thread for wrapping them, this is how they look now.

I bought a table saw on a Friday and on Monday my coworker wanted to see by hands to make sure I still had all my fingers!
