Some Mack Plugs
 
Hey Guys,
I don't beleive I introduced myself here. My name is Nick Bocchino, I'm 13 and have been building for only around 5 months. Used an airbrush when I painted blanks at around 9 years old, then went to cans till last week. These are my 3rd airbrush job. Been up since 8 o clock making these! The top is a buddys blank, the rest are turned by me. My 1st mack job. All Info/critisism welcome!

Hey Larry,
Thanks for the kind words! You make an awesome metal lip!
I took these ones to the lake with all there hardware on before I painted:jump1: I always turn them if its a newshape, take a whole bunch of them, and then test them. The top metal lip is supsurface and the smaller one is a surfrace.
THanks!
Nick
