darrren 414 Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 Thanks mate. Im ordering a few different rubber's this week, square, tubes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
C.green 3,203 Posted February 12, 2017 Report Share Posted February 12, 2017 Love the milbros got a few here I use with theraband red or green been trying the dankung tubes just lately and there ok. Just a shame it's hard to source good square elastic now had some good days and night mooching with an old milbro and a couple good pebbles I've got one Ali thick milbro it's old battered and worthless to most but Ive had it so long it's like an old friend now if be gutted if I lost it. Been toying with getting a Stanley blank and scaling it meself anyone tried them? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
darrren 414 Posted February 13, 2017 Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 Where can you get a Stanley blank? Would love one. I've ordered myself a milbro, wasn't sure if people had taken game with these but I guess they must have as its the original catty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ratbuster 807 Posted February 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2017 Not a Stanley blank, but a friend did cut his own frame and made this one up. After breaking the first plywood one he made, he came up with this one. Looks great i.m.h.o. Frames where cut with a water jet or laser cutter I'm not sure, but came out really nice. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
