I do several different steps in plug making with the body clamped in a vise. I wrap the body in a dry sponge just rtight enough to do what I have to. If there are marks from the vise I immediatly pour water on the affected area on each side. The water swells the plug marks back out and with a tiny touch of sanding you can't even notice them. Of course it works better of softer woods like AYC,WRC and Pine. Maple doesn't show the marks as much.
