Very nice Bruce, can't compete, my eye. Bernzy's stuff beautiful as always. Ed and George and Steve and Karl and Mike and Salty and anyone else who post's, I am sure I am forgetting someone, all of the stuff looks beautiful. Great inspiration guys, keeps me motivated. Down to the cellar. P.

Something new that I've been playing with lately. Wood version of a rattle trap. A hair under 1 oz. Two rattle chambers. Slow sinkers. A couple of views cause its hard to get a decent photo with the flash from them. The top two have foil on the sides. Used some prizm tape on the sides of the bottom one.

Slip, thanks much. :D

Actually, foil on a flat sided plug like those is pretty simple. Seal and prime as usual. Apply some glue stick or 3M adhesive to the plug. Attach foil and smooth it out with your fingers. Trim the edges with a razor. Use a smooth object (I used a sharpie) to smooth out the foil real well. I then used a handle from a racket (had a nice pattern on the grip) to do the scales. Just roll it over top. Do a light coat of epoxy over the plug. Paint as usual when dry. If you mess up the paint, you can just wipe it off and go again. Clear coat as usual.
