Slipknot 04-18-2003, 09:20 PM They look nice Christian. That is a good idea using mahogany for the darter, I bet it holds up well too. IFG 04-18-2003, 09:37 PM NICE! Christian 04-18-2003, 09:43 PM thanks, only problem i have with mahogany are those little pitts and things that look like worm holes in it. know what i mean? got a maple darter ready for the spinner tommorow. the pick a number popper on the main board was my build too, that was maple.maple turns nice. probally do some testing/schoolie fishing tommorow heres a pic of the maple darter, its got a pretty steep face to it, compared to the other one and i put the swivel a little bit to the back. Christian 04-18-2003, 09:45 PM heres a better pic of the angle of the face on mr.maple. trying out diff angles to see what digs best.

RI Popper 04-27-2003, 08:04 PM Hey guys, I've worked with Mahagony a few times, great stuff tough as nails. To get rid of those small holes you were talking about: prime with Kilnz than rub a small amount of wood filler over entire body to fill it, than sand and prime again. After you sand the next time. it can be smoothed out like glass. vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2025, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.
