My goal is to consistently reproduce (via duplication) an 8" waking needle design that proved very effective this fall. Hand-turning this needle again & again allowed me to discover some important nuances, but once I got the design down it became tedious towards the end to reproduce it exactly. I'd also like to create and duplicate some scaled versions of this needle.

I want to mess with some musky-style lipless jerkbaits.

Also, I have a Ranger-ripoff design I want to explore (including a version covered with tin).

Before all that though, I need to finish the peg board, cabinetry and flooring in the wood shop. I also have to install a sink and ventilation in the new sealing/painting/smelting room. Finally, I have to complete the rod building room, which will double as the plug finishing room with humidity and dust controls.

Man, I better get to work...
