[gone fishin]

I hang all the plugs on the wheel first.
I include at least one spring in each row to allow some spinning of the plugs as I epoxy.
My wheel has 16 stations that are 24" wide. I can usually stagger at least two plugs per row, even though I never do that many plugs at one time. I can easily do 20 plugs without worrying about sagging.
My method is to unhook the spring from the end and while holding the plugs out from the wheel under a bright set of lights I epoxy the two plugs. After all plugs are done I turn the wheel on and do a final check for holidays.
After a short time I use a propane torch and move it side to side under the plugs to eliminate any bubbles that may form.
I usually spin them for at least a couple of hours and sometimes overnight if I feel that the epoxy was too stiff.
Keep the working epoxy floating in a warm cup to allow easier speading.
The attached picture is of the rack when I had only 1/2 the stations.
As a bit of info, I now wire before epoxying.
