I don't build plugs, but I do still fish your plugs that I bought at west end bait shop. I have bats, peanuts, cowboy jrs, dannys, small and large needle fish. Maybe they were made on this equipment.
I got my first custom rod from beckmanns. I was 12 or 13 selling baseball cards at a flea market. My mother saw some earrings she wanted from a guy that liked baseball cards. I traded my baseball cards for the earrings, with the understanding that in exchange I got a custom rod from beckmanns. It is a 11 ft honey lami with maroon wraps and cork tape. I am 40 now and still have the rod. Also my neighbor and person who taught me to surf fish called me over to his house the night before he moved to Florida and gave me his 2 custom beckmanns rods. One spinning one convential both with red black and yellow wraps. Still have those rods also, and the memories that go along with them.
I started with a Thule castaway, didn't like it and switched to a ski rack, tree fell on truck during sandy and crushed the truck and the ski rack. Just got a rac a rod and it is by far the best rod rack I have ever owned or seen.
