View Full Version : First plug
johnny ducketts 02-12-2008, 03:59 PM Well, I can't take the credit for the body, which was bought at the RI show a few years ago from #^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&#^&, but for your approval I would like to submit my first plug.
All thats left is the through wiring and the expoxy over the scratch coat, but I am wicked happy with how the results came out.
Just want to thank everyone for all the help and guidance. I told my wife it would be cheaper to build them then buy them, :smash:
Whatta ya think?
Biteme 02-12-2008, 04:08 PM :kewl: Looks great
striperchaser02 02-12-2008, 04:16 PM Looks nice! is it really cheaper to build when you first start out?
Peace
Henry
fishbones 02-12-2008, 04:23 PM Nice work.:kewl: My first ones are going to look pretty amateur compared to that paint job. I just started out myself and I figure they are cheaper as long as I don't put a price on my time or sanity.
johnny ducketts 02-12-2008, 04:26 PM well, at least the chemical buzz is nice!
The Dad Fisherman 02-12-2008, 04:34 PM One.....of Many, Many , Many more to come...Looks good :kewl:

I think you are going to be taking her out to dinner a lot once she figures this whole thing out. Nice start, regardless.
johnny ducketts 02-13-2008, 08:03 AM it's so pretty i decided to give it a bump

I think you have painting down.... but if you think it's cheaper to make them than to buy them....:wall::wall::wall: one word: OBSESSION!

GunnySniper 02-16-2008, 06:01 PM It's only cheaper if you STOP right now!
Once the heroin like addiction starts you will soon find that you have a stock pile of wood blanks, 500 assorted lips, 2000 hooks, 100 bucktails, 58 gallons of paint, 4 airbrushes,.....................
ProfessorM 02-16-2008, 06:41 PM I ho'd that plug and to be honest some youngster was admiring it so I asked him if he would like it, to which he said yes. Hope you don't mind but I couldn't resist the look of admiration on his face.
johnny ducketts 02-16-2008, 06:51 PM Seeing, that kid pick that one off your table, and the way he was walking around with it made my unbelievably happy.
Thank you for the peanut as well
ProfessorM 02-16-2008, 06:59 PM my pleasure
outnumbered 02-16-2008, 07:23 PM But how happy will you be when you see the kids picture with a 40lb'r attached to it this spring.
johnny ducketts 02-16-2008, 07:34 PM as long as i have a few red stripes around, I think I'll be ok.!:grins:
