got the measurements from a old post here on SB (thanks) and I've really never seen a 3/4, I got a couple 3's to look at, but the first on (frount one) I built looked alittle like I sanded too much, a little sleeker that a photo...ha a gts3/4porsche...so the 2nd one I made sure I keep the cone in the nose and keep it fatter in the hips its a gts3/4 hummer:cheers2: the woods cypress in the back and white ceder in the frount you can see the rings more with the cypress,cypress is heavyer too...what one looks better to you guys:pats: ed

better side shot..there both the same length

They look great

Like the bottom one, but very little to quibble over there.

I like both shapes... the more "fishform" one on the bottom looks pretty "alewife-y".

How's the swim difference on those cedar vs Cypress?

Nice job Ed. I like the cedar one, seems like a smooth transition, but my eyes keep going up to the cypress. I'll need one of each and then let you know. (I got that line from a 2002 post of Charleston's)
Told ya, I learn quick:jump:

when I turn them the whites drier and lighter and the cypress smells less and is heaver, so I would guess the white's more lively floats faster because its lighter...I don't have a duplicater so every bodys alittle off, so I've never really tested them equally..every peise of wood different too...thanks everyone
