Troy yes you can, not a cheap option if you are only going to turn out a few rods. Cheapest way is a couple of V-blocks and hand wrap, there is a lot of pros who still hand wrap, even there long underbinds. If you are interested in a handwrapper plans I can direct you to a site if you want to build one.
