Now that gives you a nice bed to sit the plug on the drill press so the holes will be vertical in your hydro orientated plug .. I also use these (i'll call them plug blocks) to hold against my piece on the lathe ..making sure I'm not over sanding and keeping a uniform shape.. at very end I use it to make all my marks for belly hole .. weight hole,, eyes ,, top of slope .. I'm not saying all plugs have to be hydro orientated.. like needles or heavy belly weighted plugs... Fat plugs no belly weight Nike is a big yes ... jointed unweighted .. YES,,,darters.YES.... Only thing I haven't been able to do is handcarve..
