Any input on screw eyes? I've been making some plugs from dowels with a dremel and can make some decent needle and spook models (and by decent I mean catches blues when I don't want to risk other plugs). I've been using screw eyes and applying some epoxy to keep them in tight. Any input on this? Thru-wiring really isn't an option for me right now. This hardware has held up to some beefy blues, but will it eventually give? I'd really like to get into making plugs but right now I don't have the time or equipment. Thanks guys.
