Building your own clubs

[sammy_dawson]

I was just wondering if any has any experience of making their own clubs and how to get into it, the tools required, and overall about how they feel about the clubs that they made.

I've made a few woods but never a set of irons.

Tools are pretty basic:

A tape measure

A hacksaw (or better still a cut off wheel) for trimming the length of shafts.

Sandpaper to remove the finish on graphite shafts and inside the clubhead hosel for epoxy bonding

Epoxy

Also useful are a shaft clamp to be used in a vise and a scale for weight and swingweight.
