MrPogies fault

Recently I have been making some casting (bottle) swimmers without a duplicator. These need to be very accurate in order to have the correct and consistant action. To say the least, my reject rate for blanks has been high (30-50%). What are plugmakers without duplicators doing to make consistantly shaped plugs?

My lathe is an old Craftsman that cannot be easily fitted with a duplicator. It has a single round tube for the bed (and I'm too cheap to buy one).

This is all MrPogies fault. I was happy to turn a few popping plugs until I saw his work.
