    Too many trip hazards, I have a much better set up with my DIY removable T-bar with 4 holders on steel pipe. I also made the actual pipe clamp pole holders quick adjustment for angle with 1 longer bolt with a large wing nut per holder. That allows me to tiptoe rod angle, very sturdy even with catfish and tight drag. I basically used monster T-bar design but with a pipe. A small 1/3 circle with multiple 1/4 in holes welded to pipe allows me to use quick push/release pin for adjustment. Simple, powder coated with heat gun. Anything worth doing should be done right. I have made several of these and my idea is patented. Great for crappie up to medium heavy, not used for ocean heavy duty. 300lbs per holder is working load and no bigger than millennium crappie rod holders with all the same adjustability at much stronger use.

    Yeah, it was definitely a super crazy year for sure! I appreciate the prayers, and can also guarantee I'll always keep a sense of humor... life is too short to be serious all of the time! I love those old tools, my grandpa passed when I was about 10 months old back in 1985 so I never got to know him but using his old table saw and drill press makes me feel somewhat connected to him. Plus, if you bought a new craftsman table saw it'd be made of plastic with an aluminum top instead of sheet metal and a cast iron top... I spent a lot of time dialing that thing in and she works like a champ minus being a little underpowered. Thanks for watching, and leaving a comment! Hopes to wherever you're at, you are staying safe and in good health as well as all of your family!

    Yes we were, and it is very warm in there as well but is the same way at Great Wolf. As far as the best building to avoid a lot of walking, I would imagine that the main building, in the main hallway right near the indoor park would be best suited to eliminate a lot of walking. We stay in the time share condos that a lady my mother in-law works with gets us, and even those aren't bad since they have shuttle service from all of those buildings. I feel like there's more to do than Great Wolf and it's not quite as expensive. Hope this helps!
