Securing My Golf Net - Suggestions?
kregan replied to tstrike34's topic in Balls, Carts/Bags, Apparel, Gear, Etc.
I looked at the video, is the front or the rear section of the net lifting? Maybe some sand bags or gallon milk jugs filled with water? Try a gallon milk jugs filled with water and hung by cord from the frame supports a few inches off the ground. -
Joined a threesome as a single walker... Everyone was fine for a couple of holes but one guy was wound a little tight. as we progressed around the course he got more and more agitated with his bad shots. On the 13th tee he sliced (again) and threw his driver toward the golf cart... it bounded off the cart and onto the path snapping the head off and scuffing the hell out of the head. Since I was walking I just avoided them the best I could.

Looking for shaft extractor, belt sander, etc.
kregan replied to shihtappens's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
You might want to look at machine tool suppliers for some of your equipment. Some of the tools sold specifically through golf outlets are way overpriced. Here are a few belt sanders - http://www.use-enco.com/CGI/INPDFF?PMPAGE=662&PMCTLG;=00 The Enco 1" x 42" belt sander would be good for shafts. -

Thought I would share a link to the Gtour. http://www.facebook.com/golftour They purchased customized golftags as awards for the winners at each course. Each tag is engraved on the rear with the name of the course and the Gtour logo. -
I play the old LT 2005 irons and went through the exact same thing a few months ago. Went to a fitting for my current clubs and just for fun we tried a few of the current lineup. I hit my LT's better then any of them and the fitter agreed I should just stick to my current set. As a side note the OS's were my first set and I loved them. I purchased a used set of LT's just to try out and the slimmer top lines really fit my eye. I was able to hit them just as well as the OS's so I stuck with them.

Wanted to stop in and let you all know that I have updated the web site and added a couple of wen options. First is a new finishing technique that I came up with for the bag tags. This finish has the look of pewter without the use of chemicals or paint. It gives the details some depth through shadows and I think it looks pretty nice. The Fallen Soldiers tag below has this finish. Second is a new ball mark size. A few people did not like the large 1.5" ball mark so I have added a smaller 1.25" mark. I am also offering rear engraving on the ball marks for no additional cost. I did eliminate the name on the front of the ball markers and went with initials so I could make the lettering larger. Finally I am offering paint fill on the ball markers for a small up charge. Black, Blue, Green, Yellow, Red are available. Thank you for all your orders and hope to hear from you soon! -
I guess it is more like a cage then a case! LOL

Do over! I went for a minimal effect! No engravings, no inlays, no spacers. The antennas are exposed and I have found no loss of signal.

Thanks guys, I have done a bunch of sand trap tags as well. I didn't wan to post pictures because a lot of them have different names engraved then the purchasers name so I think they are presents. Don't want to spoil a surprise! -

Hi Guys, Thought I would share a couple of custom tags I did recently. The rear of Cameron's tag has the autograph he received from Jack Nicklaus engraved on the rear. -
Here is the fist case with a the wood inlay. It was a lot of work and it still is not perfect. That is Brazilian Cherry with baby oil for a finish. Things I would change: 1) engraving is to big/deep needs to be finer. 2) not sure I like the paint fill. 3) inlay is stepped (you cant see it) and I think I would like to reverse the step so it would be impossible for the inlay to pop out. but that would require flipping the case and milling both sides. I am thinking a sand man logo would fit well on the back!

Hi Guys, My first version of the case killed the signal pretty good but I changed 2 things that restored the signal... 1) the spacers are aluminum and it was shorting out the antenna, I added heat shrink around them but they are now made from nylon. 2) If you look at the picture of the back you will see the semi U shaped cut out near the bottom. The original case back did not have that and the wifi signal was being affected the most. Once I added that open area on the rear the signal went back to normal. If you search the web for "internal iphone4 antenna you can find info suggesting that an antenna resides in the lower rear section of the phone. While not scientific my signal around town has unchanged from what it was before installing the case. What I am planning on doing is making the cut out larger and inlaying some Brazilian Cherry for a nice contrast. I also plan on using smaller hardware and reduce the size a bit more. BTW... Its not a tin hat, its a plate you put in your shoe!!!

I wanted to wish everyone on the Sand Trap site a happy Thanksgiving! Hoping everyone and your families are all safe and sound. -
Hi guys, Thought I would share an aluminum case I made myself the other day. It is milled from the same material I use to make the bag tags.
