Thanks guys for the warm welcome and kind words...Id love to make it down when I can....Sounds like a blast!
Hey Terry J!..I live out in Wylie,but I work in Dallas....And yea all ''A'' thread and I burnish both the top and bottom ..Mainly using small figure 8 type strokes.
Something Im trying now is using D as my sacrafice for a slightly wider gap...I like the effect it gives me...The green and purple rod in the pics was one done that way.
Another thing I need to test is doing sacrafices on both the top and bottom wraps...Ive seen a few guys do it and it gives a neat/different effect as well!

That rod in your avatar looks great!...and very comfy!
