I've built two, a 4 weight and a 6 weight. I borrowed the wrapping machine. Its fun getting one the way YOU want it, blanks are fairly cheap but once done your not saving any money. To me (as some one who reloads a lot) it much like reloading in the sense you are not saving any money but there is a special satisfaction knowing you built it.
