There is a dowell factory in Westbrook Maine. Back in the early days (60's) they made alot of plug bodies for larger plug suppliers.
They are well known for the mallet handles etc.
I have no contact info but I will will try to find out a few things.

Workin on getting more, yes I did bring a few "selects" back, not Maine, the Kingdom.

No phone up there so comms are infrequent

crashfromamesbury 11-15-2004 02:38 PM

my brother lives up that way.. the company in westbrook is saunders.. they are either closed or going out.. there may be a good supply of wood for the taking.. anyone going up that way?

MikeTLive 11-16-2004 08:19 AM

crashfromamesbury 11-16-2004 11:41 AM

my big truck would hold a lot of dowels.

Wow I forgot about that place. Used to have a friend that worked there in the early 70's and was always getting doels from him to make poppers for blues. I live 10miles from there. Maybe I'll have to see what I can find tomorrow. Will just have to find where it's located. The Striper Maine-iac

MikeTLive 11-19-2004 05:40 PM

As said, I need to get up that way with the misses.
I am sure we could swing by and fill up the truck..
