Like father like Son??
 

My son wanted to learn to use the lathe. He comes with a piece of birch chair leg. Says, can I use this? No problem ,let me show you. I explain the different tools and techniques. Not knowing what he was going to turn he comes to tell me, does this look like a plug? I tell him very interesting. Showed him how to drill the holes and eyes and dropped in the sealer. Last week we mock up the wire and add hooks to test. I liked the angle it swam at. I told him you might have something. Anxiuos to paint it , I told him patience. The sealer needs a little more time. He primed and base coated with rattle cans. He wanted scales and a red plug. OK. After showing him some of you guys great plug colors he opt for this combo. Showed him how to airbrush and stencil E-tex it and told me I want sparkles. Gave him the sparkles and he went to town. It looks PISSA! Unique to say the least.

Beautiful piece of work! Looks like a fish catcher to me!:drool: Must have had a good teacher!

Has the shape of a Coke bottle! Nice!

Thanks Larry. I told him the Coke bottle resemblence. He smiled ear to ear.

You think that was a big smile? Wait till he catches on it!!! I want to see pics of that moment! You tell him for me he is a talented young man and to keep up the fine work!

my kids almost 3... i cant wait to teach him all this stuff. you must feel pretty proud :D

wow..Nice looking...

That thing is cool,,, I bet it has a really nice waggle when it swims,,, and the paint,,,,, SWEET...... I know a couple places that plug would surely produce....

Nice job by the boy! Fish it in good health.
