Well said Slip,Happy new Year Buddy.I notice lately there are some folks not posting an I also noticed the guys that sell there stuff becoming quite over the yrs.Not sharing with the boards that many of them learned from I remember when more than quite a few of them started this stuff an we all learned together.Slip Has some first runs of quite a few Fine builders here an they hardly resemble anything they make today.It was alot of fun. Everyone seemed to push each other to be better.Now It seems everyone is a professional, quite, no pics an there are these little clicks where u gotta be a memeber to get the real secret information or plugs an thats too bad.Its kinda childish really. When the fact of the matter is if U make a quality Plug an decide to sell it U probably could not keep up with the demand I don't care if u make 10,000 needles a yr.ask HABS.thats 200 per week thats alot of plugs.An they buy out the shops the minute the hit the selves.Thats alot of wood, paint, hardware an labor. do the math if u think its a great living ur probably better off keepin ur day job.I did some work with a guy usta have a plug biz an there's no romance in drilling blanks all day its factory work at its best with all kinds of cancer causing factors thrown in. thats OK there will be a new crop of amazing guys coming thru to keep things going.Hopefully we can continue to share what we have learned.By the way I don't put pics up because i got any super secret plugs they are the same crap I see evryone else make I just can't do it.I'm a pic dummy.sorry I try to share with what I can with words an I know that is tough.an I am by no means a expert.But I help when I can Its what makes the world go round.I will try to make a few more this yr an spread some love like Tony Appleseed.An ifn I evr figure out how to post a pic look out.Happy New Year to everyone an good luck makin those fine customs.
