Default Giving People the Knowledge to Feed themselves

I get so many calls about customizing that sometimes we have to put a block on our home phone. But it is very important, I have always felt, to give people the necessary tools to be successful and they will in time, be able to plant their own food.

That's sorta how I look at customizing. There are customizing DVDs that I have created to give a basic knowledge on "How to" customize our figures. Guys call me asking how did I do that and no doubt, I have no problem helping anybody but these DVDs are vital in giving guys the basic knowledge to know you can create anything. Nothing is off limits.

The other day I was speaking with a coach and he asked on how do I create Polamalu's hair? Most guys would say black thread but for me I don't think twice about it. I let him know I shave my head or beard from time to time and this makes for great hair for dreads and long hair.

Someone asked about chinstraps. I keep telling them that the US Postal Office has the most free and easiest chinstraps that you will never have to buy.

Someone asked on horse collars, grass, towels, and numerous other things. These are things that are highly guarded by people but they are just pieces to the puzzle of creating an athlete.

The knowledge you try to share with the customize will give him greater satisfaction when he creates his best little custom figure because he took the time to learn the steps/principles and apply them.

This is addicting and therapeutic. Over the holidays, if you get a chance to be alone and want to delve into the world of customizing, it will be one of the most rewarding feeling that you could ever have in miniature football.
