Bliz 04-16-2004 12:00 PM

Shipping yours soon Capesams? ;)

You're doing some sweet stuff!...

Thanks Eben for the glass popper you donated last night!

I'm trying to find a way to attach some hardware to it for the display!

I was thinking about the needlefish you had mentioned, and I think that the one you gave to Capesams is more like the one that should go into the case!...

What do you think?...

Either way,

You do great Work!

Mr, Frances... It was great speaking with you the other night!

I look forward to seeing more from you in the future!...

Thanks for helping me out with the adhesive numbers I'm looking for!


"GOT JOINTED?"...

For those who are willing to add jointed creations as well as those who have not yet signed onto this project by sending in one of their own home made plugs(jointed or not), please feel free to contact me anytime...

My phone number and contact information is on the first post of this thread...

I'm hoping to see many more creative additions come in for this display!


Thanks! :)

It was good finally speaking to you as well I enjoyed our conservation. I am going to the craft stores on monday to get some supplies when I get something worth while I will call.


I got some new colors and some improvements to old colors when I get pics I will send them to ya.

Talk to ya soon
Steve

capesams 04-18-2004 11:26 AM

hope ya not thinking of putting anything sticky on those plugs?....

Bliz 04-19-2004 06:22 AM

No Steve,

I am looking for numbers to put next to the Plugs inside the case as an identifier that will match an entry in a book that will accompany the display...

Those plugs are too beautiful to destroy with adhesive. :)

Bliz 04-20-2004 07:51 AM

Capesams,

That jointed plug is very interesting! Especially the way that it is jointed!

that's definitely a different way of doing that!

I have really enjoyed seeing the plugs that you have resurrected from the past!

I find them to be as fascinating as they are unique!

capesams 04-20-2004 05:22 PM

I like the old ways, there for I am. an old phart.:D

Bliz 04-27-2004 07:36 AM

WOW!!!!!!!!!

I have to hand it to you Capesams...

You make one hell of a Plug!!!

When this jointed creation arrived yesterday, it was greeted with the usual kiss from my two year old daughter just as I got it unwrapped...

And as I held this plug up to look at it, I was absolutely blown away by the workmanship that you put into your lure creations.

This plug has really given me a sense of respect for the time and effort, as well as the craftsmanship that goes into putting these Plugs together.

Magnificent work Capesams!...

And rest assured, this beauty will hold a prominent place in the Plug Project display case...

Unbelievable!...

I really admire your work Steve.

Thanks for offering one of these so that everyone will be able to enjoy seeing it first hand.

The pic's you posted don't even come close to showing how awesome your work is.

capesams 04-27-2004 04:17 PM

Txs...boss,,,,your welcome, an enjoy.

Crow 04-28-2004 09:27 PM

Capesam did you wire that in the Creek Chub style? Very nice plug, oh so fishy

capesams 04-29-2004 05:35 AM

Hi Karl,

I'm so glad to see you had decided to be part of the Plug Project!

I appreciate your contributing toward this collaborative collection.

Please feel free to take whatever time you need, as I appreciate those like yourself, who have decided to contribute to a growing legacy of plug builders everywhere.

By the looks of your first batch of plugs, I'd say you are going to catch many fishermen as well as bass on your lure creations.

I hope to see you in August at the Plug event being hosted by BIGFISH

Thanks so much for your PM :)

Don

(I wasn't sure this PM got through to you...)

Bliz 07-12-2004 06:12 AM

Thanks for your contribution coming toward the August event Jigman!

I look forward to seeing it in the display!

Bliz :btu:

Bliz 07-14-2004 12:45 PM

Anyone else out there building their own lately?...


You can come on board for the August event & have your work featured in this amazing collection!

Let me know!...

BigFish 07-14-2004 02:04 PM

I will have one for you at Plug Night II Bliz!:D

BigFish 07-14-2004 02:18 PM

I will be posting a new/updated sticky shortly about "Plug Night II"!:happy:

Bliz 08-26-2004 09:18 AM

I would like to thank everyone who has contributed something to add to the project for the event last night.

There will be another case at our next event featuring more incredible hand made creations made by others like those of you who have generously built & sent in one or more of their own.

Last evening was an amazing event, and the response to this project has been overwhelming to say the least...

For those who have considered coming on board, please contact me, and I'll be happy to arrange to meet with you, or you can simply send one of your creations to me via mail.

I met an interesting artisan last night who is a contemporary of Eben's & the blown glass lure creations he showed me were absolutely amazing!...

I look forward to displaying one of his creations in the near future as part of the display as it continues to grow & evolve.

Thanks again to everyone out there who has become part of this growing legacy!...

You guys have been great!

I look forward to all that's ahead! :)

PLUG PROJECT UPDATE:

For the future Plug Project Showings, I will be including a register that people who see the display can write their comments in...

Each plug will have an identifier that will correspond to a space in the register, and written comments will be sent to each contributor as the project maks it's way around the various fishing shows throughout New England.

The Plug Project will accompany Gags International Tackle Co. wherever I may be...

I will need to obtain some chrome plated plastic (preferably adhesive) numbers like those used for clocks...

Does anyone know where I can find them?...

Again, I would like to thank those who have stepped forward to play a part in history for this project.

For those who have generously contributed already, you can look forward to hearing the comments of others about your work as well as seeing the register as well at future events...

Bliz

For those who have contributed plugs, please PM your contact information so that I may be able to contact you with comments after the shows.

All I will need is an e-mail address and phone number...

Bliz 08-30-2004 07:01 PM

I look forward to seeing one of yours Larry!

BigFish 08-30-2004 07:04 PM

hi Bliz, I donated that Squid pencil to the projest . You asked me about some info on me to go with it. How do I get it to you? Let me know. The Striper Maine-iac

Bliz 09-23-2004 09:15 AM

Anything coming in from Bigfish yet? :confused:

BigFish 09-23-2004 09:54 AM

Still fishin' em!:D

MAC 11-25-2004 09:15 PM

Any updated pics yet? Or has this gone by the wayside?

Bliz 11-29-2004 07:04 AM

Things have been pretty quiet MAC...

I am still looking for others to toss one toward the project, and will consider getting pics of the plugs that have been donated so far...

This has not fallen by the wayside...

I'm hoping that others will sign on over the winter months as a way to escape cabin fever...

MAC 11-29-2004 03:18 PM

Great, thanks for the update:D

Bliz 12-18-2004 12:23 PM

PLUG PROJECT UPDATE

I will be taking the plug project with me to the MSBA & RISAA shows this year, and would like to see more of you toss one toward the display... this collection will accompany Gags International Tackle Co.'s manufacturer's booth at the shows and will feature your creative & collective talents.

Please PM me if you are interested in becoming part of the growing display for the 2005 season.

Thanks so much!

Bliz
Gags International Tackle Co.

Slipknot 02-03-2005 10:37 AM

:confused:

Bliz 02-03-2005 10:41 AM

plug project display...
 
Hi Bruce!

Yes, I was planning on it.

I do need however, to have another case built to house the additions that have come in...

Working toward the stocking orders and shows that are coming with Gags...

I'm not sure that I'll have enough time to have it ready...

Don


So, How have things been going?

I am sorry to have missed your open house for plug building!

I totally lost track of the date! :eek:
