It's an interesting shape and you can do a lot with it. Very similar to some of the handcarved shapes you guys made last year.
Chris, thanks for the demo last year. I learned a lot. I finally picked up a pair of the psi super centers in november and I've been playing with this stuff ever since. Last time I was in the shop Mike gave me a few unbent ones, but I had trouble getting the right size/shape. I must have held the one of yours thats hanging on the wall there 1/2 a dozen times... I kept changing them on the belt sander and swimming them, but I never got it right. The lexan's real easy for me to work with. One of the tackle mags had a few pages of their lips printed real size, so I just keep tracing different ones, and rough them out on the bandsaw, then shaping them on the sander. Best thing about the lexan is the lip slot I need is the same width as my table saw blade so its easy to cut square slots...

Yer welcome, and I just picked up a couple tips from you so thank you.
The flat lip needs modification, its a pia. Im thinking the goo goo will work almost as is.
We should meet at the troll HQ and compare swim our children this weekend
