I cut the basic shape out with the band saw. After that I use the sandpaper that comes on a roll. It is 1.5" wide and looks like 80 grit. They use it for cleaning copper before soldering. I cut it into 15" pieces and sand it like you would shine shoes. Then I go back and sand it smooth with a foam sanding block so it contours the plug and don’t make flat spots.
