As long as you are sealing it good, I suppose it may be OK but I'll let you know that poplar wood does not do well in contact with water because it will rot quicker than other woods. If they aren't expected to hold up for years, then go ahead and use it but I can think of many better types of wood to use for plugs. I have used it before since I have plenty of scraps but I'd rather use AYC or even basswood these days.
Maybe I should take a trip to Attleboro to get a load of AYC and maybe others might go in on it.

I am in if you do the AYC thing. I know Numbskull would be in on it too Bruce. I was going to call you anyway.
