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.

Why even try.........
