I just got an airbrush and I'm still learning to use it. My brother does sheet metal work and made me a nice spray booth that I'm rigging up some duct work for. I'm also in the process of building a turner for once I epoxy them. I have a bunch of plugs turned and ready for paint but here's the first batch using the airbrush I still have to paint some mackerel patterns on some of them.

Awesome video of your shop musky.:want:

I'm having trouble posting pics.:wall:

After somewhat mastering Nikes of various sizes, I had this crazy idea of building a soft-tail Nike for musky fishing..........off to the "Lureboratory" I go.......

My wife and I bought a house last year so I wasn't able to do any plugs due to lack of space (wasn't allowed in the basement). I bought a nice 10x14 shed and ran electric from the house. I just quartered a bunch of WRC 4x4's for 3 different pencils sizes.

I'm really looking forward to building again. I got some great advice and help from a couple of the members in the past so I'm happy to be back at it to share some of my stuff.
