Are my the only one?
 

Left work a little early today so i can get home to paint up some plugs for the plugfest and boy are my cutting it close.Only got a fraction of them done so i gues i'll be doing the same thing tommorow.Now i can't be the only one doing this so stand up and be counted anyone else out there doing the same?Or am i the only nut.

Will be doing the same thing tomorrow.

Your not the only one. I was over Numbskulls the night before last. He looks like he will need therapy after getting everything done.:err:

I repainted my contest submission plug 4 times. I wanted to kill my airbrush.:fury::realmad:

I'm better now.:angel:

Trying to figure out whether I can speed up the epoxy drying by putting them in the oven Sat am...............:eek:

Clearing my last 1/2 dozen tonight. Contest plugs!!?? AwwwwNuts...

gotta finish my last three in the next couple of days

none
 

cellers too cold ,flooding today....I'm thinking why distroy a good thing and go nuts just to have a good time...when it becomes a job it too much for me.... just a hobby...I'm hopeing to eat, drink and be merry:laugha:seeing old friends and new

Lu,
It's so bad here, I'm lookin for some of last years models to bring!!
My total finished plug count for 2008 = 2 (and they were sent out)

You are not the only one, In the last 2 weeks I have turned my barn into my "man cave", complete w/ lathe, radial drill press, table saw, band saw & router table. I had to build a workbench & then a spinner. I wish I had found this web site a few weeks earlier. I am in the process of trying to finish about 20 good quality plugs (have a fair amount of screwups also). Time is ticking, now its time to tie some bucktails. I wish you could speed up the drying process of the epoxy.
I can't wait to meet all the good people & see the great plugs & even trade some of my new babys. See you @ PLUGFEST!!!!:jump:

I was painting last night and I brought some to work today to Sand and Prime. Gonna be epoxying tonight and painting too.

No contest plug for me this year.....screwed it up and wasn't happy with it. Just gonna enjoy the company......and the grub

I'm done building for awhile, I had a big push last week and got it all done,I still need to cut a bunch of hook gaurds, I've just got to put some urethain on a display rack I made and I'm ready to pack....

Hey Ed, bring at least one trade with ya, I've still got yer Unicorn I built for our ill fated swap last year..

Lol.... I've been doing the same thing without cutting corners and sacrificing the end result. Just taking my time while being under the gun. Whatever gets completed gets done. I have a feeling tonight is going to be a late night in the cave. :yak4:

Probably did 100 plugs in the last 3 weeks. My spinner has been running non stop. Donations, swaps, and promises. Plenty to assemble and tails to do yet. Plus I got a small swap due in March that I have not even started yet.

You been quiet latly.. Iknew you were up to no good....:D

I made two! plugs that is.....

I'm a mess over hear .. skin plugs ... no paint .. had to make lips though.. :yak4:.. My contest plug if I even finish it is lame arse .. Trying to bust free of Portly Anglers is taking alot of time ..

Camera has been on the fritz lately. Software problem. I hate computer stuff.

That explains it... I hear ya on the computer stuff...

I epoxied some last night but have to see how it comes out as i looked inside one of the epoxy bottles and it looked like it had a block of ice in it.I put it in warm water and got it to melt down somewhat so i'm hopeing when i get home tonight its nice and cured if not i'm scrwd.

Lu, how old is the epoxy?,In the past, I know I've had e-tex I've kept over the summer, it never quite cured correctly, looked like it had ice crystals in it...

Don't know how old at least 1 year i'll know for sure tonight if it went bad.:err:

Thanks Scott i kept it under the faucet and ran hot water on the botlle
i'm still at work so i won't know if it worked until i get home later.Looked like it was a snowball inside the bottle and started melting when the warm water started to heat up the bottle.

:wave:

just got done with 10 on the spinner
I tried to use system three clearcoat and just hang them, but the first one came out like poop so I did etex on the spinner

guess I'll try to wire tom. night :rollem:

I've been sick as a mf'er all week I have two a50's to wire up for a charity and I havent even been able to do that, I havent been sick in like 6 or 7 years.

Me too Victor. I am the last in the household to get it. Nice timing.

That nasty has been going around.... I glot KO'd by it two weeks ago, first time I've missed work( for a REAL illness) in 12 years.... Get well....

My Friggan Airbrush crapped out on me last night with 1/2 a dozen left to paint :wall:.....not happy.

Scott, I bet you did those 200 in less time that it takes me to mark the ends.
